OK, I had the same problem than you with TMO 2.0 (and yes I was sure the problem was in TMO 2.0). My assumption is that corruption happens when repeatedly enabling/disabling mods. I guess you can call this mod soup but coming from the cutting board.
If I'm right, the problem might as well be in RSRDC since you managed to narrow it down to this one. I figured that out the same way you did. Anyway, here's how I fixed it:

the most common problem found is called "mod soup" [...] step one is purge all mods from jsgme and delete them to be replaced with brand new fresh copies from the download or from your documents files.
step two is to purify your game files by deleting the entire data folder and replacing it with your backup copy of the stock unmodded v1.4 or v1.5 game you use. if you didnt preserve a backup copy to restore your files then you will need to uninstall and reinstall the whole game, and then make a backup copy of your data folder before doing anything else.
you now know all files are clean...

... One more thing I read somewhere on this forum: Delete the hidden folders created in the MODS folder by JSGME to make sure they won't have any influence.
Now here's the defect; When I was upgrading to the 4/50 caliber the movement were getting disabled exactly as you described it. In my case, for some reason 3 AI gun files were duplicated in the mod itself:
- AI_Deck_Gun_4_50.cam
- AI_Deck_Gun_4_50.dat
- AI_Deck_Gun_4_50.sim
After purifying everything AND before adding any mods to the 1.5 stock game, I opened TMO's data folder and noticed the three files mentioned were duplicated in two different folders:
- C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 4 Wolves of the Pacific\MODS\TriggerMaru_Overhaul_2\Data\Library
And the other was one step further in the folder tree:
- C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 4 Wolves of the Pacific\MODS\TriggerMaru_Overhaul_2\Data\Library\U SSubParts
I compared with the stock game "Library" folder and I realized those files only belonged in the USSubParts folder so I went back in TMO's Library folder and cut/pasted the 3 faulty files from "Library" in an isolation folder out of the way from the mods or game folder.
I installed TMO 2.0 using JSGME and the problem was fixed!
Just make sure you do this before enabling any mod of course.
