The 2nd Infantry Brigade "Rovine" ("Brigada 2 Infanterie "Rovine") is an infantry brigade of the Romanian Land Forces, best known for its deployments in Afghanistan and Iraq peacekeeping missions.
The brigade was formed in 1970, being named after the medieval Battle of Rovine, which took place in 1395. The brigade is currently subordinated to the 1st Infantry Division, and its headquarters are located in Craiova. The structural reorganization process of the brigade ended in late-2005.
