Which resupply method is described as a mixture of two methods?

Explanation:
Modified Tailgate blends two approaches to resupply: it uses elements of aerial delivery to bring loads into a nearby area, then relies on ground handling with a vehicle’s tailgate to offload and move the supplies to the unit. This hybrid keeps pickup times high and exposure low by not requiring a full landing zone or pure air drop, while still delivering near the target quickly. In practice, a helicopter can bring palletized cargo close to, but not directly to, the unit, and the tailgate setup on a supporting vehicle is used to unload and transfer the cargo efficiently to the distribution point.
