Corrected radio channel errors.
Added A-10A and Su-25 mission translations.
Fixed Group Dead condition.

Fixed Lua expression renamed to Lua predicate, and the trigger.
Corrected unrealistic Su-25T wingman behavior.
Corrected images in the Encyclopedia.
French localization for DCS: A-10C Warthog now available.
DCS Open Beta Testing
As DCS World ever increases in complexity and scope, along with a continued expansion of new modules, the testing task has reached the point where we cannot expect our internal and external test teams to catch all the problems in a reasonable amount of time. As such, starting with DCS 1.2.6 we will first be releasing new DCS versions as open beta. Our team and the external testers will be closely monitoring reports and entering valid bugs into our bug tracking database. We will ask reports only be submitted for new problems that did not exist in the prior version. We sincerely hope this will improve the quality of the final version.
DCS World on Steam
Later today, DCS World and our current modules will be available on Steam with a 10% discount. These include:
DCS: A-10C Warthog
DCS: Black Shark 2
DCS: Combined Arms
DCS: P-51D Mustang
Su-25: DCS Flaming Cliffs
We plan to release A-10A: DCS Flaming Cliffs for Steam on 16 August 2013.
The Steam version of DCS World is unique in that all DLC purchases through it will direct users to the Steam store. As such, the updates for Steam products works a bit different. We have set up 'semi-automatic' updating for the Steam version - the updates themselves will be delivered by the Steam.
We do not believe it is possible to move DCS products purchased outside of Steam into Steam.
New Weapon Models
