Drones
An increasing use of
aerial unmanned systems by the U.S armed forces creates severe problems.
An
internal service memo reveals that the US Air Force combat missions operability
is stretched to the limit due to a persistent lack of qualified personnel.
According
to RT, the US Air Force
has no shortage of MQ-1 Predator and MQ-9 Reaper assault drones, yet it is
running out of experienced drone operators,
making those in the ranks working flat out, The Daily Beast reports, citing an
internal service memo.
It
indicated that the Air Combat Command (ACC) cannot keep up with educating and
training new personnel to satisfy Pentagon’s ever-growing demand for drone flights.
