A high altitude platform can provide observation or communication services. A high-altitude platform station (HAPS, which can also mean high-altitude pseudo-satellite or high-altitude platform systems), also known as atmospheric satellite, is a long endurance, high altitude aircraft able to offer observation or communication services similarly to artificial satellites.
The Boeing Phantom Eye is a high altitude, long endurance (HALE) liquid hydrogen-powered [1] unmanned aerial vehicle developed by Boeing Phantom Works. [2] The aircraft was Boeing's proposal to meet the demand from the US military for unmanned drones designed to provide advanced intelligence and reconnaissance work, driven by the combat conditions in Afghanistan in particular.

Designated RB-57F, the design was almost an entirely new aircraft with a three-spar wing structure of 122 feet span, powerful new Pratt & Whitney TF33-P-11 main engines and two detachable underwing J60-P-9s for boost thrust at high altitude. The aircraft carried high-altitude cameras which were able to take oblique shots at 45 degrees up to 60 ...

The Boeing SolarEagle (Vulture II) was a proposed High-Altitude Long Endurance (HALE) unmanned aerial vehicle solar-electric spy plane developed by Boeing Phantom Works. [1] The proposed aircraft had a wingspan of 393.7 feet (120.0 meters), and was intended to remain airborne for up to five years at a time without needing to land. [2]
In 2008, Boeing announced that it was teaming up with SkyHook to develop a heavy duty lifting vehicle, the SkyHook JHL-40 Boeing subsequently shelved the project. [17] The Hybrid Air Vehicles HAV 304 was built for the US Army Long Endurance Multi-intelligence Vehicle (LEMV) program. It flew successfully for 90 minutes in August 2012.
Design, build, and demonstrate the Global Observer UAS for a 5 - 7 day endurance for 55,000 to 65,000 feet (17,000 to 20,000 m) altitude missions with 380-pound, 2.8 kW payload capacity. The system had to be capable of being transported by a C-130 aircraft.
