An inflatable pod assembly for an aircraft includes an expandable exoskeleton. The expandable exoskeleton defines a leading edge and a trailing edge of the inflatable pod assembly, and the expandable exoskeleton includes first and second portions selectively attachable to each other. The inflatable pod assembly also includes an internal cargo area configured to receive cargo, and the first and second portions are configured to selectively enclose the internal cargo area when the first and second portions are attached to each other. The inflatable pod assembly further includes an internal inflation chamber configured to selectively receive an inflation fluid for expanding the exoskeleton to thereby transition the inflatable pod assembly from a deflated state to an inflated state.
