From which version does httpclient get supported in .Net

Someone recommend us to use HttpClient rather than HttpWebRequest in the code. I am wondering from which version does HttpClient get supported?

I searched, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.http.httpclient.aspx

Does it only from 4.5?

It's only supported in .NET 4.5.

However, it is available for .NET 4 as part of the Web API, including the source code of via a NuGet package.
