It is not a pallet. It is an Air Force pallet. Big difference.
 
A pallet is a flat transport structure designed to support a variety of goods in a stable fashion while being lifted by any mobile forklift  or other  jacking device.
 
 
 
 
 
Air Force Pallets are quite different from ordinary wood pallets.
