My relative has one of the the highest security level clearances in the country and is vp, advance products for one of the top defense contractors in the country.
There are numerous other things that make ev military vehicles more favorable in testing according to him but he would never disclose them.
Why is every military in every country movings towards EV’s? Why is every military defense contractor in the entire world moving towards EV’s? China surely is. Are they woke? I don’t think so. Why is that? To be at a disadvantage?

To answer your question I think an electric motor gives off way less heat tha a diesel and no exhaust fumes and what heat comes off can be covered up but I am not knowledgable enough, not even close to answer your question.

definitely less heat, but the laws of physics are not fooled.

To propel an object to a certain speed requires some kind of energy source to convert chemical energy to mechanical.
And that is not 100% efficient, there will be heat generated.

Heck, you can feel your phone heating up as you use it a long time.
