But judging from photos online -

I do hope this is a one shot wonder - the uprights and brackets will fail will repeated road vibration. Especially given that the squads carry load is hung off these rails. The cross-struts underneath is going to VERY prone to corrosion and failure over a short period of time regardless of environment.
Glad SOCOM are footing the bill.....
