The Artillery Regiment (Swedish: Artilleriregementet; designated A 9) is the only artillery regiment in the Swedish Armed Forces. The regiment was formed by bringing together all the artillery regiments of the Swedish Army, and it took its designation A 9 from the Bergslagen Artillery Regiment. The regiment carries the battle honours of all past Swedish artillery regiments. Its new organisation was founded in 2000 in Kristinehamn and in 2005 the regiment was moved to Boden.
The current artillery system used by the regiment is the Haubits FH77 B. A new system called Archer joined the Swedish Armed Forces in 2013.
