At the time, GS Yuasa said its Li-ion batteries offered 100% greater energy storage capacity than the existing nickel-cadmium batteries used in airliners. Since it is maintenance-free and has longer service life comparing to current nickel-cadmium batteries, it makes for lower operating costs and increased safety for airline companies.

The initial JSF 28 V Battery was derived from the successful F-22 Raptor Program, using Saft’s Aircraft Maintenance Free Battery (AMFB) nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) technology. The AMFB 28 V Battery carried the program successfully through the aircraft’s first flight in December 2006.

The advantages of lead-acid batteries are mainly: safety sealing, gas discharge system, simple maintenance, long service life, stable quality, and high reliability; the disadvantage is that the pollution of lead is significant, and the energy density is low (that is, too bulky).

Nickel-cadmium batteries from 30 or 40 years ago got replaced by nickel-metal-hydride batteries. And fairly quickly, nickel-metal-hydride got replaced by traditional lithium-ion batteries. They are lower-maintenance, they are lower-cost in many respects, depending on what features you want and so forth.
