Article Synopsis
- The U.S. Air Force relies on remotely piloted aircraft (RPA) aircrew and support personnel for critical military missions, which can lead to increased stress and psychological health risks.
- To counter these issues, a “combat-to-reconstitution” policy was trialed, aimed at giving RPA personnel more downtime for recovery.
- A study involving 397 RPA personnel gathered mixed feedback on the policy's implementation and highlighted that factors like work overload contributed to stress and potential burnout, pointing to areas for improvement.
