Karl-Heinz Langer (19 April 1914 – 6 May 1955) was a Luftwaffe ace and recipient of the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross during World War II. During his career he was credited with 30 aerial victories in 486 missions, 10 on the Western Front and 20 on the Eastern Front.

Langer was appointed Staffelkapitän (squadron leader) of 7. Staffel (7th squadron) of Jagdgeschwader 3 (JG 3—3rd Fighter Wing) on 1 June 1943. He succeeded Oberleutnant Eberhard von Boremski who was wounded in combat. On 14 October, during the Second Raid on Schweinfurt, Langer claimed the destruction of a Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress bomber. In this engagement, his Messerschmitt Bf 109 G-6 was shot down by defensive fire. Langer was forced to bail out near Hammelburg. Due to the injuries sustained, he was replaced by Leutnant Erwin Stahlberg as leader of 7. Staffel.
