Södra skånska regementet (South Scania Regiment), 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 Infantryregiment). The regiment's soldiers were originally recruited from Scania, and it is currently garrisoned in Revingehed outside Lund, in Skåne County.
