Re: Maintenence costs
Another option, is to right click on the item while inside a build queue.
There, it will show you both the price and maintenance.
Be warned: the windows with dual cost showing (price and maintenance), are not guaranteed. If the vehicle (such as a base) or a component is on the vehicle that modifies maintenance, it is not reflected in the dual window.
Once built, the maintenance shown when you click a vehicle is accurate.
I don't know if the latest public patch addresses this, but the next one surely will.

Re: Maintenence costs
Also, on the Ships screen (F6), there's a button which shows the maintenance cost for every ship you have, and you can sort the list by clicking on the column headers.

Re: Maintenence costs
Maintance is also basically 1/4th the cost of the ship a turn..

Re: Maintenence costs
Wasn't mantenance supposed to increase when a ship grows older?

Re: Maintenence costs
 The manual says that it's 30% the total cost.
