High Performance Instrumented Airborne Platform for Environmental Research (HIAPER)

HIAPER（高性能机载环境研究平台）项目包括一架经过高度改装的湾流V（GV）飞机，能够高空、长时间、大有效载荷能力和高速飞行。 HIAPER飞机旨在填补国家科学机载平台机队中的一个重要空白，并将随时定期进行比学术研究界通常可用的更高高度和更长持续时间的科学有效载荷任务。

The HIAPER (High-performance Instrumented Airborne Platform for Environmental Research) project consists of a highly modified Gulfstream V (GV) aircraft capable of high altitude, long duration, large payload capability and high speed flight. The HIAPER aircraft is intended to fill an important niche in the national fleet of scientific airborne platforms and will readily and regularly allow higher altitude and longer duration science payload missions than those generally available to the academic research community.
