Lots of people think that airship isn't real, thanks to a fake 2019 video that went viral. But it was actually a real prototype, the Lockheed P-791. A small version able to carry 18,000 kg of cargo was built and flown, and a larger one was under development for a while, then Lockheed ended up selling it to a small company that is developing it as the "Z1 aeroship". Hard to tell from this angle but it is basically three dirigibles attached side by side, like a big-ass seat cushion. Top speed 69 mph.
