Strengths: Storage- The WESTAR Ammo-belt is able to hold a large number of ammo and detonators. The belt can hold up to a maximum of 48 power cells or 24 detonators or wide variety of mixtures in between. This allows the wearer of the belt to remain in sustained firefights for longer periods of time before running low on ammo.
Weaknesses: Belt- The WESTAR Ammo-belt is as its name says, just a belt designed to store ammo and detonators. It offers no additional protection or utility to the wearer outside of the ability to store more ammo on their person. It can not protect the wearer from blaster bolts or slug rounds that would kill them. The more weight inside of the belt as well the more difficult it becomes to manage the belt. This can make it become heavy which can slow down the wearer and even hinder some of their agility.
Description: The WESTAR Ammo-belt is a simple item in both design and materials. It is made primarily of leather with a silicar lining on it. The leather provides the belt with sturdiness that allows to last for long periods of time and take more abuse before needing repairs or to be replaced. The silicar lining protects the leather from the effects of environmental hazards such as heat, cold, and corrosives. The silicar also acts as protection from electricity to both the leather, wearer, and contents of the pouches. The belt was then finished up by adding on a magnetic lock to the belt that can be turned on and off. This makes the belt easier to get on and off while also ensuring the belt will not become loose while in combat or bursts of movement.
The WESTAR Amm-belt was given enough space to hold up to eight pouches on it that can range from anywhere from small to large in size. These pouches are able to hold varying numbers of ammo depending on type, but primarily designed for power cells and detonators. They were lined in silicar to protect them from surges of electricity that might set them off leading to them exploding on the wearer of the belt. The belt was then given a holster for a single pistol and a sheathe that is able to hold a vibroblade, lightsaber hilt, or short metal blade.
