looks like right at the start it doesn't sound promising "s determined that substitution of JP-8 for DF-2 reduced the acceleration rates, and thus power, of all vehicles tested except one, Also, all vehicles tested, except for the M88AI light recovery vehicles, had fuel consumption increases with JP-8 "

it seems like it would be more practical for them to try and just come up with a blend of both for everything, keeping the higher energy density of diesel and the resistance to gelling that jp-8 has-
plus i hear they have mass research into algae bio diesel but won't do it till petrol is too much.
