The Commando was originally developed in 2463 for the use with the Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces, by Coventry Metal Works (then known as Coventry Defense Conglomerate). It was one of the first ever Battlemechs developed for reconnaissance, as well as one of the Commonwealth's very first forays into light mech design. Despite it's relatively experimental nature, at the time, it was able to destroy the much heavier units fielded by the Draconis Combine, during the first ever large scale battle between Battlemechs, on Nox in 2475.

As of BTA version 2.9.2, the mech currenly fields 10 variants, all with the same class and tonnage. It's predominant stock role is Scout, with Light Striker or Light Sniper.
