Released on: November 28, 2025


In the 2026x release, we implemented the UAF 1.3 standard, which includes key features for Mission Engineering Modeling. The UAF 1.3 Profile is fully supported in UAF, EA-BPMN, DoDAF, DoDAF 2.0, MODAF, NAF, and NAF 4.0 frameworks. Therefore, UAF 1.2 is no longer supported in this version. Moreover, the New DISR and UJTL library versions are now available.

To download the latest version, see Downloading installation files. For further information, check the product documentation.


Methods and Standards

Beginning with this version, the UAF 1.3 Plugin is available for production use. The UAF 1.3 Profile is fully supported in UAF, EA-BPMN, DoDAF, DoDAF 2.0, MODAF, NAF, and NAF 4.0 frameworks.

IMPORTANT! The UAF 1.2 Plugin is no longer supported starting with the 2026x version.

Projects created in earlier versions require the following migration before you can continue working with them:

UAF 1.3 Profile Support

Together with the UAF 1.3 Profile, the following changes are implemented to enable Mission Engineering modeling in the 2026x version:

Library Support

New DISR and UJTL library versions are now available:

  • UJTL (20250715)
  • DISR (20240606)

You can choose the library version when creating a new project. Learn more about using libraries >>>

UAF/UPDM Compliance Mode for BPMN2 projects

The “UPDM Profile for BPMN” is no longer available in this version. All of its stereotypes have been moved to the existing BPMN Customization Profile. In addition, a new UAF/UPDM compliance mode has been introduced for BPMN projects, allowing you to choose whether the compliant UAF/UPDM stereotypes (depending on the plugin) should be applied to BPMN elements.

Validation

  • The new correctness validation rules dedicated to checking if the client and supplier are correct have been introduced for the following relationships:
    • Opposes, Defines. New relationships, which were implemented with the UAF 1.3 Profile support.
    • Existing relationships: Phases, Compares To, Governed By, Maps To Goal, Owns Value, Creates, Enables, Evoked By, Presented By, Sequence
  • The new correctness validation rules were implemented to verify whether the classifiers are correct for the following elements:
    • Actual Mission Scenario. The classifier must be Mission Scenario or its specialization.
    • Actual Mission Vignette. The classifier must be Mission Vignette or its specialization.
  • The new correctness validation rule was implemented to verify whether the behavior is correct for the Mission Task Action. The behavior must be a Mission Task or its specialization.

Discontinued Products

The AutoStyler plugin is deprecated, with the intention of removing it with the next major version release, the 2028x version.

Other Enhancements

  • A new backwards compatibility feature allows UPDM 2.1 projects created in the 2026x version to be Saved As Older Version in 2024x compatible file format. This makes them directly compatible with the UPDM 2.1 plugin in 2024x, allowing you to open and work with these projects immediately in the 2024x version. This approach does not apply to the UAF 1.3 projects. Learn more >>>
  • The UAF Enterprise Architecture Framework is now renamed to EA-BPMN. The perspective and project creation template was already renamed in the 2024x version.
  • The «ActualDODAFProperties» stereotype will no longer be applied automatically after creating instances for «DODAFProperties». Moreover, the «DODAFProperties» stereotype is renamed to «UAFProperties».
  • In this version, the Strategic Actual Strategic Phase Taxonomy Table was renamed to the Strategic Actual Strategic Phase Table. Learn more >>>
  • A new UAF BoK Sample is now available. This sample is based on the UAF WOW! book.
  • This version includes new functionality that lets you select whether the Definition or Comment will serve as the Documentation for UAF elements.
