I doubt a laminate floor will stiffen your exisitng floor, since it is not attached in any way to it. For that, you would need to go to an engineered wood, but check to see how those handle the temp/humidity swings of a camper.
I'm not looking to take all the stress off, just looking to even it out a bit more. The laminate wood would stiffen it up better than vinyl I would think?

I dunno, just seemed like a good idea to me.
