Much more. How bout immune to heat seeking technology and a self healing computer system? Also 6 times quieter than the Apache and almost invisible even to equipment designed to pick up sound. Oh yeah...and showing up the size of a bubble bee on radar doesn't hurt.

I don't believe the JSF to be a capable replacement for the A-10's mission profile.
