An airship comprising: a plurality of electric power generators (G1, G2, G3, G4); a plurality of electrical buses (Bus 1, Bus 2, Bus 3, Bus 4); a plurality of propulsion points (PXt, PXb, PY, PZbt, PZbb, PZst, PZsb) each equipped with a propellant bundle formed from a plurality of thrusters (Xt1, Xt2, Xt3, Xt4, Xt5, Xt6; Xb1, Xb2, Xb3, Xb4, Xb5, Xb6; Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4; Zbt1, Zbt2, Zbt3, Zbt4; Zbb1, Zbb2 Zbb3, Zbb4; Zst1, Zst2, Zst3, Zst4; Zsb1, Zsb2 Zsb3, Zsb4) of the electric-motor-driven propeller type. For each of the propulsion points, a thruster is electrically connected to one of the generators by means of one of the electrical buses, and another thruster of the propulsion point is electrically connected to another of the generators by means of another of the electrical buses.
