There is a wide range of civilian uses for these types of cases but a common use case is for organizing and protecting a variety of professional photographer's gear or for carrying musical instruments.
Anytime you have sensitive equipment that you need protection such as scientific equipment or military equipment . I used to work with a company that customizes these cases for customers and there are just about a hundred other uses cases out there that the average person doesn't need - things for like the tech industry or in manufacturing equipment to transport sensitive machinery.
I think specifically the "air" series of cases are for traveling - hence why they got wheels that make it easier to take with you in say the airport.
I'm used to Pelicans for work, and they are really nice. I'm working if you get 90% of Pelican quality for less than 50% the price. And what specifically is better with Pelican.

My thoughts exactly
I haul around a bunch of automotive test and programming gear with mine. Whether Pelican or Apache my use case is primarily organization and mild/moderate impact protection, and I see little quality difference. The cases might get wet if I carry them to or from my vehicle in the rain, and they are perfect for that. If someone is trying to take these cases swimming, or has a more specific use, there may be a clear advantage I am unaware of with the Pelican.
