The inflatable volume ( 60 ) and shield chamber ( 102 ) are in fluid communication with each other. The shield portion ( 100 ) is turned inside-out, positioned in the inflatable volume ( 60 ), and configured to receive inflation fluid from an inflation fluid source ( 24 ). The shield portion ( 100 ) is further configured to rupture and release inflation fluid into the inflatable volume ( 60 ) of the main portion ( 100 ).
