Fighter Pilot Inventory and Requirements Model; A Ten Year Look with Impact of UAV Increase

Abstract

Historically, managing fighter pilot requirements has been a continual challenge for the Air Force Personnel Center. In recent years, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles have become a highly sought after commodity, and the number of UAV billets have increased, with more increases expected in the near future. Currently 45% of UAV squadrons are manned by combat aircrew. Fighter pilots fills the majority of these slots. This dramatic increase in UAV requirements demands analysis for the impact on fighter pilot requirements. An increase in UAV fighter pilot billets represents a direct increase in force requirements, however, there may be an indirect effect on training and man year requirements.
