Airships Market Overview :
Global Airships Market is estimated to reach $304 million by 2024; growing at a CAGR of 7.2% from 2016 to 2024. Airship is self-powered, steerable aircraft, lighter than the air-aircraft, which navigates through the air. They contain large air bags with gas, which are less dense than the surrounding air. Moreover, structure type is one of the segments of airship market. There are three main structure types of airships such as rigid, semi-rigid and non-rigid. Rigid ships maintain their framework though metal framework, whereas semi-rigid, maintains it shape by internal gas pressure and also with a partial rigid frame. These airships are highly used for advertising and covering sports events, among others. Apart from this, airship also has applications in transporting cargo, and military purpose.
Surge in need for continuous surveillance, along with low operational cost support the growth of the airships market. Furthermore, increasing use in advertisement due to its ability to stay up in the air and target larger areas also boost the growth of the market. However, risky operation due to use of hydrogen gas which is highly inflammable may hinder the growth of the market. Furthermore, luxury airships for commercial tours and hybrid airships would provide growth opportunity in the upcoming years.
The global airships market has been segmented based on the structure type, application and geography. By structure type, it is further segmented into rigid, semi-rigid and non-rigid. Furthermore, applications are segmented into commercial tours, surveillance, research, cargo transport and others.
