Aircraft Airframe Cost Estimating Relationships

Fighters

Ron Hess, H. P. Romanoff

ResearchPublished 1987

This Note is part of a series that derives a set of equations suitable for estimating the acquisition costs of various types of aircraft airframes in the absence of detailed design and manufacturing information. A single set of equations was selected as being the most representative and applicable to the widest range of estimating situations. For fighters, the equation set uses airframe unit weight as the variable.
