The Focke-Wulf Super Lorin was a proposed German jet interceptor project, designed towards the end of World War II by the engineer Heinz von Halen. It remained only a factory design exercise and never received an RLM airframe number before the German surrender. Little is known about it beyond brief mentions in surviving documents. It was based on the Focke-Wulf Ta 183 and had mid-fuselage wings swept at 45 degrees, a wingspan of 7.6 metres and a length of 11.6 metres. A fuselage-mounted rocket engine and a small turbojet would give the take-off speed, and two Lorin ramjets on the tips of the sharply swept tailplane would be used for cruising, with two 30 mm MK 108 cannon as armament.
