This paper will introduce a method for evaluating operational cost with respect to the aircraft actuation system. The method in the paper considers the weights, volumes, power consumption and cooling needs of components closely related to the actuation system. Trade-studies of the above-mentioned quantities is done in a case study involving a highly maneuverable fighter jet.
