Yes be real, the abstract describes "a plurality of connected segments and a controller that is adapted to dynamically control the movement of each of the plurality of segments relative to one another during flight of the airship."

Moreover, while the initial description includes the head...two body parts and a tail for a total of (4) segments, George states, "it should be apparent that other embodiments of the airship 100 may include more or fewer body segments 104."


Thus, the patent is for a segmented ship and how it is controlled. Argus merely represents a prototype of this.
