The Ukrainian-Russian war has shown that physical fitness is closely related to the nature and method of conducting combat operations, which, in turn, are determined by the means available to military personnel and the conditions under which combat operations take place. Changes in combat methods, the use of advanced technologies, and the increase in means of long-range destruction have led to the introduction of a new military specialty in the Armed Forces of Ukraine – drone operator. Specialists-operators of air, ground, and sea drones note that among the main qualities affecting task accuracy are psychological qualities, specifically: concentration and stability of attention, its switching and distribution, short-term and operational memory. Studies have shown that well-planned and organised physical training can improve and maintain psychological qualities at a level necessary for prolonged task performance under significant psychological stress and low physical activity. Purpose – to determine the physical qualities that most effectively support the maintenance of psychological qualities of military drone operators in conditions close to combat. Material and Methods. Subjects: 100 healthy cadets from a military educational institution. Four groups of cadets were formed, each consisting of 25 cadets. The first group included cadets with a high level of static endurance development (plank holding), the second with speed development, the third with general endurance, and the fourth with strength endurance. The age and duration of military service of cadets in both groups did not differ significantly (p>0.05). All participants in our study gave their informed consent to participate in the experiment. The studies were conducted and performed in accordance with the ethical standards of the Helsinki Declaration. Results. Under the influence of vestibular irritation, the psychological qualities of cadets of all groups decrease. Indicators of CPQ of cadets of the first group deteriorate by 2.8 (t=2.081; p<0.05), of the second group – by 4.75 (t=2.060; p<0.05). In cadets of groups 3 and 4, these indicators also decrease by 1.2 and 0.7, respectively, but there is no significant difference with the resting values (p>0.05). The indicators of PSU of cadets of groups 3 and 4 decreased by 0.85 and 0.4, respectively, which does not allow us to speak about a significant difference compared to the initial data of this indicator (p>0.05). The analysis of the influence of NEN on the psychological qualities of cadets revealed the following dynamics of changes in the indicators of CS: in cadets of group 1 – by 2.1 relative to the indicators at rest (t=3.279; p<0.01); in cadets of group 2 – by 2.9 (t=2.112; p<0.05); in cadets of group 3 – by 0.4 (t=0.252; p>0.05) and in the fourth group – by 0.7 (t=0.417; p>0.05). Approach. The influence of the development of cadets’ physical qualities on the development and maintenance of psychological qualities in a state of calm and under the influence of negative professional activity factors was studied.
