A cooperative actuator system for active flow control, a vehicle comprising such cooperative actuator system, and a method for operating an actuator system for active flow control. The cooperative actuator system includes actuators, a control unit, and a data unit. The actuators are distributed along the surface in at least a first group and a second group downstream of the first group. The control unit is configured to control the actuators of the first group so that they form a first flow structure along the surface. The data unit is configured to provide data of the first flow structure. The control unit is further configured to control the actuators of the second group based on the data of the first flow structure, so that the actuators of the second group cooperatively interact with the first flow structure to form a second flow structure along the surface.
