Gurgen Dalibaltayan (; born 5 June 1926) is an Armenian Colonel-General. He was the Chief of General Staff of RA Armed Forces during the Battle of Shusha, a battle to capture the city from the Armed Forces of Azerbaijan, often called the Marriage in the Highlands by Armenians. He is credited with devising a strategy to assault the strongly fortified town of Shusha using diversionary attacks against adjacent villages to draw out the defenders of the down while the command of troops, "Komandos" Arkady Ter-Tatevosyan, encircled the town and cut off reinforcements. His strategy is generally considered impossible, or at least implausible, as he was originally outnumbered. General military tactics suggest a force of three times the defender's size to successfully storm and win.
