Douglas A-26 Invader (mezi roky 1948 až 1965 značený B-26 Invader) byl americký dvoumotorový bombardovací a bitevní letoun, který se účastnil nejen bojů v druhé světové válce, ale byl nasazen i ve válce v Koreji a ve Vietnamu.

The Douglas A-26 Invader (designated B-26 between 1948 and 1965) is an American twin-engined light bomber and ground attack aircraft. Built by Douglas Aircraft Company during World War II, the Invader also saw service during several major Cold War conflicts. A limited number of highly modified United States Air Force aircraft served in Southeast Asia until 1969. It was a fast aircraft capable of carrying a large bomb load. A range of guns could be fitted to produce a formidable ground-attack aircraft.
