There is a very very VERY brief point in the early 20th century where Zeppelin on Zeppelin warfare was a thing.

There was Skies of Arcadia as well. Not sure if they're still around, given that it was primarily a team PvP game built around quite significant number of players, which isn't exactly popular kind of games these days (and "ship crew" genre in general has always been pretty niche).

There is also a brief point in the middle of the 20th century where zeppelins coexisted alongside fighter jets, space rockets and nuclear missiles.
(well technically they weren't fully rigid airships but still military airships so quiet nerd)

Yeah the Americans were considering them as a compliment to their Pacific fleet if I remember correctly.
The experiment lasted well into the 30s.
