An airship comprising a main body having a rigid structure (4) surrounding a plurality of containers for a lighter-than-air gas, a plurality of propeller units mechanically connected to said rigid structure and each comprising one or more electric motors for driving a pusher propeller, and one or more power-generating units for powering said electric motors. Said airship also comprises two nacelles (1) symmetrically arranged on either side of the main body and each arranged so as to receive one or more of the power-generating units (84.1, 84.2), each ducted nacelle comprising a mechanical structure (300) connected to the rigid structure (4) of the main body by an joint, an "fail safe" interface and at least one rudder or traction cable (7, 70, 71) between a first point of attachment on the rigid structure (4) of the main body and a second point of attachment on the mechanical structure (300) of the nacelle.
