      The Amphibious Corps (Amfibiekåren) is the coastal defence arm of the Swedish Navy. Until 2000 it was known as Coastal Artillery (Kustartilleriet), but the name was changed to reflect its different role, where its amphibious special operations arm, the Coastal Rangers, has grown in significance while its coastal batteries have been decommissioned. The 1st Marine Regiment (Amf 1), also known as the Amphibious Regiment (Amfibieregementet), operates wherever land and water meet. The Amphibious Corps was designed, organised and equipped for a mobile defence of Sweden's own coastline, not for the classic role of marines, attacking land from the sea. As of 2009 it had a strength of 337 Regular officers, 79 Civilian employees, and 913 Reserve officers.
