Overview

With its reduced operating costs and point-of-need (PON) delivery ability, the hybrid airship is one lift option that offers promising capabilities to meet the DoD's future logistical challenges throughout the spectrum of conflict. When examining the hybrid airship in this capacity, it is essential for personnel to evaluate the platform through the appropriate framework without dismissing the idea based on inaccurate misconceptions. Establishing a new paradigm, distinct from traditional airlift and sealift frameworks, is critical in understanding how hybrid airships would be viable lift options in filling the current cost/speed gap in the distribution system. Assessing the hybrid airship in a distinct framework allows for a pragmatic examination of its key operational challenges. The vehicle proves to be far more robust and capable in terms of threat and weather survivability, along with ground and terminal operations, than commonly perceived.
