  1. An airship fast enough to keep up with the surface force operating a radar at an altitude of about 14,000 feet (4,267.2 meters) reasonably comfortable for fit people use to 5,000 feet or above without supplementary oxygen would have been useful in WWII. Used both as a lookout for the fleet or a decoy to draw attention from where the fleet really is.

  2.  @TheEvilmooseofdoom  Are you going to go for the airship or the ships that can sink your air port?

  3.  @TheEvilmooseofdoom  The airship can run fairly fast, it is about 200 miles to the horizon for surface scanning, and you can turn off the airborn radar and activate a ship based radar once you know the attack is on the way. The airships wouldn't be easy targets. It took the Japanese time to figure out the Allies had radar. How much more damage would have been done to the Japanese carrier force and pilot corps if the American carriers had a 45 minute warning of every attack. How many lost airships is that worth?
