I especially take note of the 14-hour station-keeping ability.

One hour to reach station, 12 hour to patrol, one hour to recover. Fly two for round-the-clock coverage. Neat.

Not to mention a 50,000 ft ceiling and it can carry 14 Hellfires in addition to the bombs.

That sure beats 19 cranky people who have to endure a 14 hour flight without using the restroom. It uses a lot less fuel too.
