The 2nd/14th Light Horse Regiment (Queensland Mounted Infantry) is a regiment of the Australian Army and part of the Royal Australian Armoured Corps. It was formed in 1930 through the amalgamation of two other regiments. While the 2nd/14th was disamalgamated into its antecedent units during World War II, it was re-established as a single regiment in 1949. During the Cold War the regiment was a Citizens' Military Forces armoured regiment. The Regiment was re-equipped with ASLAV vehicles between 2001 and 2004 and became a Regular Army unit in 2005.
