The Pentagon must study drone operators' mental health due to higher risks of PTSD and stress compared to pilots in manned planes.
The U.S. Department of Defense must study the mental health of military drone operators, following a mandate in the Fiscal Year 2026 National Defense Authorization Act.
The research will examine PTSD, depression, anxiety, burnout, and moral injury among drone pilots, analysts, and targeting specialists, comparing their outcomes to manned aircraft crews.
Evidence suggests remote operators may face higher psychological stress due to prolonged surveillance, emotional attachment to targets, and the abrupt shift from combat to civilian life—known as “psychological whiplash.” The study aims to inform future support and policy.
