Cockpit Phobia can be described a very specific form of claustrophobia - it is a severe anxiety disorder that causes an extreme fear of the closed/confined space of a cockpit, such as that of a fighter plane, attack helicopter, Mobile Armor, or Mobile Suit. Cickpit phobia occurs in pilots of mobile weapons or aircraft, usually as a result of experiencing a situation that places extremely high levels of stress on the pilot, such as a near-death/severe injury incurred in combat, or when the pilot has killed someone in combat.
