Description

The Sheng Long is a Quad type heavy class battle armor which was produced in last years of the thirty-first century for both the Capellan Confederation and its close-allies in the Magistracy of Canopus. Designed with speed and firepower in mind, the Sheng Long (Chinese name for Storm Dragon), employs its modular turret and stealth to outmaneuver and assist in ambushing of enemy combat units.

It would first see significant actions with Davion along Confederation border and during the Victoria War of 3105.[5] During that conflict the Shen Long would be noted for its action on Menke. That world's Menke Home Guard would team the speedy armor with minelaying Fa Shih battle armor to lure Davion's 'Mech lance into a valley and employ the armor's various configurations to fool the Davion forces into withdrawing at the cost of an assault 'Mech.[6]
