Does President Joe Biden want us to lose a major war? That’s the question after Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm told Congress that she wants an all-electric military vehicle fleet by 2030. Senators called the plan “laughable” while pointing out that the big winner if this were to happen would be America’s top adversary: China.
Poster Comment:
What would an all electric battle tank look like if it could carry a crew, keep a charge for 24 hours and carry all those tank shells? Maybe we could double the number of tanks in our fleets and have twice as many tanks at the front. That way crews could swap tanks while the old one is recharged.

Recharged with what? Electric grids in active war zones tend to be a little unreliable.
The freakshow is trying to destroy the US on behalf of China.

But it is certainly funny in a dark way that the same military that's concerned about global warming has no problem blasting depleted uranium munitions all over creation.

Well, duh! Solar panels of course. What's the matter with you, Esso? Miss your morning coffee today?
They are even now working on reactive explosive armor that also work as solar panels. Problem solved!!!!
Personally I think they should go to rubber band powered tanks. That's a far better energy storage method than batteries.

Granholm is every bit as corrupt as Joementia and has been since she was in the Michigan State Government.

Nah, I drink black tea. Started puttin' the Windsor Canadian in it at 1200 EDT, 1700 (5PM) Zulu. Wouldn't want anyone thinkin' I was a drunk imbibing before 5.
Kill me now.
Might as well.
(Edit) I hope Windsor doesn't go any gayer than Canada already is and I have to boycott it. It's pretty decent whiskey for the price, certainly as a mixer, with black tea, for example. Canadian Tea.
