الوصف: | Within the past few years, there has been a growing interest in the utilisation of airships for a variety of missions. Studies funded by NASA and the US Navy have shown that modern airships not only could perform certain tasks more economically and silently than other aeronautical vehicles (short-haul passenger and freight transport, and long-duration ocean patrol), but that they could perform unique missions, such as the V/STOL transportation of bulky loads an order of magnitude beyond helicopter capability. The types of modern airships envisioned fall into two categories: modernised blimps and heavy-load carriers. Blimps are receiving reconsideration for their traditional role of patrol and surveillance because of their fuel efficiency and the development of modern sensing devices which require a quiet, stationary vehicle for deployment. |
