Looks like the modern version of PSP (perforated steel plate/plank) That's what all the runways in the Pacific were built with during WW2. Handy stuff to have a few sheets of for those outings in the wild.

There was a LOT of PSP used in 'Nam too. In fact every SEABEE, whether a carpenter or a heavy equipment operator, had to practice laying the stuff for emergency runway & road repairs. It's really great stuff as it interlocks on all 4 sides.
I've tried to locate some since then, but no luck.
