Is military grade jet fuel more expensive than civilian grade?

JAA is “Jet A with Additives”. It’s Jet A (which is slightly less expensive than Jet A1, but available primarily in the US) with some additives added to improve lubrication, reduce corrosion, icing, etc. JP8 is the jet fuel the US military used for years before (semi-recently) switching to mostly using civilian grades.
