Another tank hit by your drones 💥

Flying Skull soldiers stopped the Russian T-90 and hit it several more times.

I wonder how the pilots of these drones feel? It seems so much less personal killing this way. I can only assume PTSD would be less of a problem at least

There are a couple of studies that show less PTSD in drone pilots but there’s only a few. One interesting take is the moral gap (see here) where killing people from home potentially makes far less normal home lives (predictably).
