Croatia's First Mechanized Guard Brigade () - named "The Tigers" - was the most elite and best equipped military brigade of the Croatian Army. It served with distinction during the Croatian War of Independence as one of the most recognizable military units in former Yugoslavia. Its military base and HQ was in the Croatian capital of Zagreb, origin of most of the brigade's personnel. In 2008, the brigade was disbanded as such and reformed as a battalion of the Motorized Guard Brigade.
