Can someone or everyone tell me what game pads are usable with JTL if any. Thanks for your help.

Given the need for 3-axis fine control, you would need an analog gamepad, and there's not much chance of it having enough buttons. One hand on a 3-axis joystick with throttle, and one on the keyboard is the best solution.
At a minimum, you would need an analog x & y, analog z/twist, analog throttle, three buttons for firing guns/missiles/boosters, and a couple more buttons for mapping "nearest enemy NPC" and "nearest enemy player" commands.
Edited because I can't spell today.
