The Light Reaction Regiment (LRR) is the special operations unit of the Philippine Army (PA), under the operational control of the Armed Forces of the Philippines Special Operations Command (AFPSOCOM). It is tasked to conduct rapid response missions, including counter-terrorism.

The LRR was formed with the assistance of the 1st Special Forces Group (1SFG) in the early 2000s in response to several high-profile kidnappings and terrorism in the Philippines.
