The prompt

Design a rugged military-style 3D-printable equipment case with a 6" × 6" × 5" internal cavity. Make it a two-piece case with a removable lid and no hinges. Use a simple slide-on, snap-fit, or tongue-and-groove lid. Give the exterior an aggressive rugged look with reinforced rounded corners, angled/stylized ribs, raised protective edges, chamfers, and recessed panels. Make the ribs look functional and impact-resistant rather than decorative. Optimize the design for FDM 3D printing, minimizing supports while maintaining strong walls and practical printing tolerances. Keep the interior clean and rectangular for adding foam.
