I'm not saying Locke is right, but you could carry a lot of drones on a zeppelin, and stay on station a long long time since it doesn't require fuel to remain in the air. Although something more like a small unmanned blimp would be a more adaptable and cheaper platform to extend the range of your drones.

There are already radar blimps, although I think they are tethered.
