Abstract

Compared with manned aircraft, Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) has small volume, low cost, convenient use, low requirements for combat environment, and strong survival capacity in battlefields. UAV has become the focus in various countries armies. All countries in the world are actively developing UAV, but for UAV operator training, both theoretical research and practice is still exist many deficiencies. This article starts with classification, task model and characteristics of UAV, then analysis the operators’ requirements of different task models, and researches UAV operators’ training of Chinese army base on using foreign army’s experience as references, finally provides reasonable suggestions.
