Boeing HALE
The Boeing HALE is a concept for High Altitude, Long Endurance unmanned aerial vehicles.
Two demonstration HALE aircraft are currently under development:[1]
- The hydrogen powered Phantom Eye.
- The solar-electric SolarEagle.
The HALE concept for surveillance missions includes flight altitudes above 65,000 ft, for endurance periods of days, months and even years – far beyond the 30 hour endurance of RQ-4 Global Hawk.
