Getting your copy of BRL-CAD

You may obtain a copy of the BRL-CAD Package distribution materials in one of two ways:

FREE distribution with no support privileges
Those users with online access to the Internet may obtain the BRL-CAD Package via FTP file transfer, at no cost, after completing and returning a signed copy of the printed distribution agreement. A blank agreement form is available only via anonymous FTP from host ftp.arl.mil (address 128.63.32.128) from file "brl-cad/agreement". There are encrypted FTP-able files in several countries around the world. Directions on how to obtain and decrypt the files will be sent to you upon receipt of your signed agreement. Note that installation assistance or telephone support are available only with full service distributions.

FULL SERVICE distribution
The Survivability/Vulnerability Information Analysis Center (SURVIAC) administers the supported BRL-CAD distributions and information exchange programs for BRL through the SURVIAC Aberdeen Satellite Office. The full service distribution cost is US$500. There is no cost to US Government Agencies. A copy of the BRL-CAD package will be provided to you on your choice of magnetic tape media. You may also elect to obtain your copy via network FTP. One printed set of BRL-CAD documentation will be mailed to you. BRL-CAD maintenance releases and errata sheets will be provided at no additional charge, and you will have access to full technical assistance by phone, FAX, letter, or E-mail.
