The Goodyear Zeppelin Company built the 2 commissioned Navy airships USS Akron (ZRS-4) and USS Macon (ZRS-5), both of which were aircraft carriers (F9C Sparrowhawk biplane fighters), between 1931 and 1935.

The Akron crashed in severe weather in 1933; the Macon crashed after suffering a structural failure in 1935.
