The Weirdest, Dirtiest And Wildest Jobs In The Military

Drone Pilots

Drones pilots, official title Unmanned Aircraft Systems Operators, are remote pilots of unmanned observation aircraft called as UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles), better known as drones. They gather intelligence to be used in operational tactics. This job is definitely not one of the most coveted jobs in the army. Instead of sitting in a cockpit piloting a plane, these pilots sit hours upon house in a small metal room in front of a computer screen. Furthermore, drones are usually chosen for jobs that are considering dirty, dangerous, or more often, boring. Drone pilots quit at three times the rate of regular pilots. The military is trying to figure out new ways to lure and keep drone pilots, because their surveillance is extremely useful.
