The object of this study is the process of forming a training dataset for diagnosing the technical condition of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) using machine-learning algorithms. UAV flights are extremely important for various aspects of troop deployment. Combat UAV flights are performed under the influence of negative factors that cause flight special cases (FSC), which hinder the execution of combat missions, lead to mission failures, and result in the aircraft damage or loss. The available capabilities of autopilots are not enough for control under complex conditions, and in certain situations, the human operator cannot timely recognize a flight special case, including evaluation of the destructive impact of enemy’s electronic warfare systems on communication channels and operation of UAV. Therefore, the urgent issue is the intellectualization of onboard control systems, particularly towards recognizing the current technical state of UAV using artificial intelligence methods. To design such systems, labeled datasets are required. The procedure for forming datasets that consider the specificity of UAV construction and their combat use under adversarial conditions is not defined, necessitating the development of an appropriate method. Based on the well-known CRISP-DM methodology, a method for dataset formation has been proposed for subsequent use in artificial intelligence systems that use various machine-learning methods. This method differs from existing ones by considering the specificity of combat mission execution under adversarial conditions, which allowed for an 8.0 % increase in the accuracy of recognizing special cases in UAV flights by the onboard system. It also enabled timely detection of electronic warfare impacts on UAV and evaluation of the effectiveness of radio signal receivers jamming
