Mladen Bratić (Serbian: Младен Братић; 6 June 1933 – 2 November 1991) was a major general in the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA).

A Bosnian Serb, Bratić was killed in the Battle of Vukovar when his tank was hit by a Croatian National Guard shell, but the JNA's advantage in artillery and rockets enabled it to halt the Croatian advance and inflict heavy casualties. The battle ended up resulting in a Yugoslav/Serbian pyrrhic victory.
