Armin Kogler (born September 4, 1959 in Innsbruck) was a former Austrian ski jumper. After his surprise win at the 1979 Ski-flying World Championships, Kogler set a new record in Planica (1981) with a leap of 180 meters. The next year, he won two overall World Cup victories along with a complete set of medals at the 1982 FIS Nordic World Ski Championships with gold in the individual normal hill, a silver in the team large hill, and a bronze in the individual large hill. He would then follow it up with a silver in the team large hill event at the 1985 FIS Nordic World Ski Championships in Seefeld. Additionally, Kogler won the ski jumping event at the Holmenkollen ski festival in 1980. Kogler's best Olympic finish was 5th in the individual large hill at the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid.
For his ski jumping successes, he was awarded the Holmenkollen medal in 1984 (shared with Lars-Erik Eriksen and Jacob Vaage).
