South Scania Regiment (Swedish language: Södra skånska regementet ), designation P 7, is a Swedish Army armoured regiment that traces its origins back to 1811. It was converted from an infantry regiment in 1963 and renamed from Södra skånska infanteriregementet (South Scania Infantry Regiment). The regiment's soldiers were originally recruited from the region of Scania (Skåne), and it is currently garrisoned in Revingehed outside Lund, in Skåne County.
