The  '''Shandra Advanced Scout Vehicle''' is a light [[Combat Vehicle]] created in the last decades of the [[thirty-first century]] and used well into the [[thirty-second century|next century]]. The vehicle began to be produced in [[3087]] by Brigadier Corporation on [[Oliver]] and became highly popular with many of the Inner Sphere nations, which began to adopt [[Combined Arms]] doctrine for their militaries.
 
  
Due to their popularity, they would be among forefront of scout missions, where it’s been known for different factions using these vehicles to clash during this time period.  A noted action using the Shandra was noted during the [[Victoria War]], when a [[House Davion]] employed vehicle encountered a ''[[Spider]]'' BattleMech during the conflict on [[Victoria (CC)|Victoria]]. The corporal and his gunner managed to survive the encounter with the ancient 'Mech due to speed and a lucky shot that stunned the [[House Liao]] Home Guard [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarrior]].<ref>''Technical Readout: 3145 Republic of the Sphere'', pp. 15 & 68 Shandra Advanced Scout Vehicle - Background information</ref>
