Joe,

I suspect there is no meaningful data because the new aircraft systems have not seen battle conditions. This is not an unusual situation. The battleship admirals were probably saying "Show me the data!" in the '30s when some crackpots were predicting the future of naval power lay not in the big guns, but rather in those puny aircraft.
Holding too firm to the tried and proved methods of warfare will, from time to time, render you the victim of someone who has moved ahead of you in strategy or material.
Will the move from A 10s to other platforms be effective or foolhardy in retrospect? You can only make your plans and do your best.

Best
