I have worked with some people in the defence industry who got just that from Adobe and a few similar vendors. They had to negotiate with adobe and sign NDAs both ways, and they payed through the nose for it. But you can do it.

"Be defence forces of (checks profile) one-of-the-five nation states" is not a standard of negotiation requirement I deem attainable for just about anyone that isn't one of the five or EU the union.

Fair enough, but how life-crucial can an old copy of Adobe be?... I'm assuming a project like the Voyager mission relies on something a bit more bespoke than a copy of Adobe Creative Whatever. I really hope the defence forces core mission doesn't depend on Adobe Creative Cloud.

Interesting. Can you point at something online with details of how that happens?

Many companies have separate license sales if you call them on behalf of a large company.

I worked at a large project management app where we charged per-seat.

We only offered per seat pricing, yet we had at least 3 companies that had flat pricing because they wanted >100k seats.

Deals outside of standard pricing gets cut all the time.
