The present invention discloses a large-scale semi-rigid structure airship, relating to the technical field of aerostats, which comprises a ship body, vector side thrusters, a vector tail thruster, an X-shaped inflatable tail fin, air cushions, and a pod, wherein the ship body comprises a pretensioned capsule and a tensegrity keel; the pretensioned capsule is sleeved onto an outer surface of the tensegrity keel in a pretensioning mode; the vector side thrusters are provided at lower-side portions of the ship body; the vector tail thruster is provided at the tail of the ship body; the X-shaped inflatable tail fin is arranged at the tail of the ship body in an X shape; the air cushions are provided at lower portions of the ship body; and the pod is provided at a lower portion of the ship body. The airship of the present invention uses a structure of integrated and synergistic force bearing by an integral keel of a tension-compression self-balancing system and the pretensioned capsule, and has characteristics of integral conformity of the capsule under a zero pressure, an integral rigidity under a low pressure, high load bearing, a flexible load arrangement, and high-efficiency transfer.
