Everything in the army runs on jet fuel because aircraft are where something like 80% of the fuel goes. There's no battery fighter jets. It's still a massive amount of emissions but making every land vehicle in the military electric reduces their total fuel consumption by like 2%.

The military can already synthesize jet fuel from the air and the ocean.

There is not large scale move to transition to that, though.

The technology literally exists and the leaders aren’t embracing it. Make you wonder…
