trucks have air suspension because it allows even weight distribution. The air can also be lowered allowing the chasis to drop a few inches making it easier to get underneath trailers that would not be high enough otherwise. It also makes for a much smoother ride than springs can offer because of the heavy loads trucks can carry massive stiff springs are required to safely support the weight. Air bag suspensions virtually eliminate the need for heavy springs, a relatively small amount of air pressure can support alot of weight.
They have airbags for the suspension air ride, they have air bags for the cab air ride. As far as collision air bags, some have them.

Yes. It's hard on the mounts and springs, and, if it causes your vehicle to sit at an abnormal angle, your drivetrain, as well. Which is why on semi trucks (which mostly use air ride suspensions anymore), getting an air suspension fault corrected is such a high priority.
It is an older suspension product that was either developed or bought by FabTec and is common on older long travel suspension trucks.
