Scientific-Practical Mechanisms for Improving the Psychological Preparation System for Military Personnel Based on the Experience of Modern Armed Conflicts

Drawing on the experience of the Russia–Ukraine war (2022–2025) and the Israel–Hamas conflict (2023–2024), the article analyses ways to improve the psychological preparation system for military personnel. It compares the results of a clinical study of 590 service members of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the Israel Defense Forces’ experience of frontline psychological care based on the PIE principles, and the U.S. Army’s CSF2 and H2F programs. New sources of psychological trauma on a battlefield dominated by drones are identified. The study proposes a continuous five-component model comprising psychodiagnostic selection, stress inoculation training, commander–psychologist integration, psychological support in combat conditions, and rehabilitation and reintegration, together with recommendations for its introduction into the practice of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Uzbekistan.
