I'd just put forwards that their cheap, to maintain and crucially, operate, small logs footprint, can operate further forwards nearer FOBS than higher performance jets, can loiter longer, have two crew to deal with the flying/surveillance workload, has a good mixture of big bang JDAM's and show of force .50 cals, and a excellent sensor fit.

Seems perfect to be honest. I'd just like to see the final unit cost.
