The Forfar and Kincardine Artillery was a British artillery militia regiment of the 19th century. It was based in and named after Forfarshire and Kincardineshire in Scotland.
Following the Militia Act of 1797, the regiment was raised in 1798 as the Forfarshire Militia. Four years later its territorial scope was broadended when it became the Forfarshire and Kincardine Militia and in 1854 it was redesignated the Forfar and Kincardine Artillery. In 1902 it was renamed as the Forfar and Kincardine Royal Garrison Artillery (Militia) and it was disbanded in 1909.
