Penetrator is a studio album released by American hard rock guitarist Ted Nugent in 1984 on the Atlantic Records label.

"Tied Up in Love" was made into a promo clip to support the album. The album is often overlooked for its ample use of keyboards. It reached No. 56 in the Billboard 200 albums chart.[3]

The cover art is a section of the painting "Dragon Tattoo" by Boris Vallejo.
