Zeppelins were a form of airship invented by humans in the 20th century. They were mostly used as transport, but also had military uses.

(AUDIO: Dead London)
The Daleks used a Zeppelin to transport their ship Survey Ship Sigma to France during the First World War. When the Daleks were defeated, the Zeppelin lost air. (COMIC: The Dalek Project)

The Zeppelin used its weaponry to destroy Cybermen on the streets whilst retrieving civilians and scientists. The Zeppelin finally transmitted the code which disabled the Cyberman emotional inhibitor and destroyed the Cyber-factory. (GAME: Save Paris) However, another account suggested Zeppelins weren't used in the liberation of Paris. (GAME: Cyber Assault)
