The 2/11th Armoured Car Regiment was an Australian Army armoured reconnaissance regiment of World War II. The Regiment was formed as part of the 1st Armoured Division during August 1941 and was gradually brought up to full strength following the outbreak of the Pacific War. The Regiment was equipped with a small number of obsolete Australian-built armoured cars until July 1942 when it received more modern Australian designed vehicles. The Regiment was based in Western Australia from November 1942 and became part of the 2nd Division after the 1st Armoured Division's disbandment in September 1943. The 2/11th Armoured Car Regiment was disbanded in March 1944.
