The Covenant Supply Case has appeared throughout the Halo series as a device that has stored the weapons for Covenant encampments. It holds four hand held sized weapons, or just of two larger weapons. It has been speculated that it also acts as a device to recharge plasma based weaponry, as all weapons found in it have been fully charged, but this may just be circumstantial.

Function

These crates are used by the Covenant much like the gun shelves on Cairo Station. On Installation 04 the more prepared Covenant have these crate locked from human activities, however on Installation 05 and High Charity these containers are left open. They carry Plasma Rifles and any Covenant weapon and it is widely thought the Covenant have a recharge device on these crates making them essential for operations. The crates are nearly identical to the Uplink Crates and possibly they are actually modified Supply Cases. In the novels, namely Halo: The Flood, Flood infection forms have also been known to hide in crates and surprise those who open them, requiring inspections on all crates.

Common weapons held by Covenant Weapons Holders include but are not limited to: Plasma Rifles, Particle Beam Rifles, Brute Plasma Rifles, Brute Spikers, Covenant Carbines, Energy Swords, Fuel Rod Guns, Plasma Pistols, Needlers, and Brute Maulers.
