The Battle of Leuwiliang was a battle during the Dutch East Indies campaign of the Pacific War that took place between 3 and 5 March 1942. Australian forces, supported by American artillery batteries and British tanks, launched a holding action starting at Leuwiliang, West Java, in order to cover the retreat of allied Dutch forces in face of the Japanese invasion of Java. Following a Japanese landing and a general collapse of Dutch KNIL resistance, Australian forces in Java led by Brigadier Arthur Blackburn prepared a defensive line ahead of a destroyed bridge in the village of Leuwiliang. Despite inflicting heavy Japanese casualties and delaying the Japanese advance for three days, Australian forces were eventually forced to withdraw towards Buitenzorg, and later further abandoned the city before capitulating after a general surrender of the Dutch forces on 8 March.

Pasukan Australia, didukung oleh pasukan artileri Amerika Serikat dan tank Britania Raya, mencoba untuk menahan pasukan Jepang di Leuwiliang, Jawa Barat dalam rangka melindungi penarikan pasukan Belanda dalam menghadapi invasi Jawa oleh Jepang. Dikarenakan rontoknya pertahanan KNIL seusai pendaratan Jepang, tentara Australia di Indonesia, dipimpin Brigjen , membangun garis pertahanan di seberang sebuah jembatan yang telah dihancurkan di desa Leuwiliang, Bogor. Meskipun banyak korban jatuh di pihak Jepang selama tiga hari pertempuran, serdadu-serdadu Australia pada akhirnya hampir terkepung dan terpaksa mundur ke arah kota Buitenzorg (Bogor).
