Agent Orange is the third studio album by German thrash metal band Sodom, released on 1 June 1989 by SPV/Steamhammer. It was their last album with guitarist Frank Blackfire (who would join Kreator) until his return in 2018. The lyrical content delves into the Vietnam War, with a song dedicated to the ground assault aircraft AC-47 as well as the Agent Orange defoliant-inspired title-track. It was their first album to enter the German album charts, where it reached number 36. Agent Orange sold 100,000 copies in Germany alone and marked the band's commercial breakthrough. The song "Ausgebombt" was released on the EP Ausgebombt with German lyrics.

In March 2010, Agent Orange was re-released in a digipak with bonus tracks and liner notes containing lyrics and rare photos.

It is considered to be an essential release in the genre by Revolver.
