The FW Ta 152 was a German high-altitude, fighter-interceptor, derived from the Focke Wulf FW 190.

The prefix Ta rather than Fw was a tribute to the head of the design team, Frank Tank. The Ta 152 was not introduced until January 1945 and although a bit late in the day, the aircraft made a great contribution to the German air defences, even though less than 50 were made before the end of the conflict.
