	This extends the idea of combining protection from explosives in a vehicle design with another advantage as the LBBA does. Bottom protection for a vehicle can be used also to create waterproofness, and hence an amphibian.

	*The load-bearing component of a military pack system has to be body armor. Weapons, water, ammo, and short rations need to clip to that, and the load bearing body armor components need to conform closely to the body, like an exoskeleton, to properly distribute the weight. It also needs to extend the original ALICE system so that the loads can be carried w/o the body armor.

	*The pack itself with long-term supplies has to clip to the body armor with quick release clips at the shoulders and the small of the back where weight is transferred to the body armor.
