With the rise of Small, Modular Nuclear Reactors, it is feasible to I think to adapt the non-tactical fleet of vehicles, especially those servicing primarily on or near base (staff cars, airfield vehicles, range trucks) without breaking the defense budget worse than Congress already does, but the tactical fleet ones.....that's a very long way off. We'll need to achieve a whole another order of magnitude in energy density before we even consider converting things like tanks to all electric. Batteries are heavy mf'ers. Do I think it's possible, on the extreme long term? Yeah, probably. But 2050? Not happening

“having been raised in homes in which there were “no war toys for Christmas,” they cannot distinguish a sailor from an airman, let alone explain the difference between a soldier and a Marine.”
