I'm also in the camp of "all your issued gear should fit into the barrack boxes you are issued , which themselves should be of an appropriate size actually allowing them to be accepted for military and civilian methods of transport, Also too, it'd be nice if they actually fit into the trunk of one's POMV.".

Who came up with these MoBs anyway? I laughed my ass off (but felt so sorry for) one of the troops we had just kitted as he (& some of my staff) attempted to cram one of these into his trunk (to no avail) - finally settling upon strapping it up on the roof of his car.
Air Canada too is just awesome at charging the troops using their services oversized baggage fees and overweight baggage fees when travelling to/from courses taskings etc. I wonder how much these fees are draining from our budget each year due to a poorly thought out design? cripes, I think the MoB is overweight as soon as you put just two t-shirts to it.
