Viktor von Loßberg (14 March 1904 – 24 May 1983) was a German air officer during World War II.
Loßberg was instrumental in conceiving the concept of Zahme Sau ("Tame boar"), a night fighter tactic of the Luftwaffe.
[2] Loßberg played a significant role in the development and introduction of the Zahme Sau night fighter system in mid-1943, which began the recovery of the German night defences against the increasing size of attacks by Royal Air Force Bomber Command and eventually replaced the Himmelbett (canopy bed) of the Kammhuber Line.
In the introductory phase of Zahme Sau, Loßberg flew 39 night fighter missions from airfields operated by I./Nachtjagdgeschwader 1.
From 1 Feb 1956 he commanded the preparatory office for Luftwaffe materiel in Bad Godesberg which in April 1956 moved to the USAF Air Station Erding.
