An aerostat uses gases lighter than air such as hydrogen, helium, as well as hot air, which helps the aerostat to generate airlift. Aerostats include powered airships and unpowered balloons that are tethered to the ground. These are generally used for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) purposes by the military forces and also for tourism and civilian observations. An aerostat surveillance system possesses the long-endurance capability, which is not feasible with a fixed-wing aircraft. The alternatives to aerostats (such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)) are battery dependent, which results in operational failures.
