CATIA V5-6R2026 (Build: xxx)

| What you see | Meaning | Example | |----------------|-------------|-------------| | V5-6R20xx | Year of release (xx = last two digits) | V5-6R2026 = released 2026 | | Rxx | Incremental number (R30 = 2020, R36 = 2026) | R36 is same as V5-6R2026 | | GA | General Availability (production-ready) | GA typically March/April |
Note: "V5-6" indicates compatibility with V6/3DEXPERIENCE data exchange.
