Maha Saw Lagun Ein (Burmese: မဟာစော လဂွန်းအိန်, Burmese pronunciation: [məhà sɔ́ ləɡʊ́ɴ ʔèiɴ]; also spelled Lagunein; d. c. March 1413) was a key frontline commander of the Hanthawaddy military from the 1380s to 1413. The commander led the military's vanguard land and naval forces as well as notable assassination missions against the enemies of his lord King Razadarit. He is best remembered in Burmese history for his battles against the northern Ava Kingdom in the Forty Years' War as well as his bravery and honesty.

Lagun Ein was mortally wounded and captured by the Ava navy in the first battle after he was promoted to the rank of general. He had gained the deep respect of the Ava high command, which sent his body on a raft down the Irrawaddy with full military honors.
