Kung Fu Meets the Dragon is a studio album by The Mighty Upsetter, released in 1975.

A martial arts-themed project, the album is largely made up of instrumental versions of some of Perry's productions (Roy Shirley's "Hold Them", Linval Thompson's "Kung Fu") and other musical pieces, featuring Perry's trademark use of percussions and production tricks (phasing, dubbing and so on) and talkover inspired by the wave of martial arts movies that were popular at the time of recording.

Recorded at Perry's own Black Ark Recording Studios, it features Jamaican polyinstrumentalist Augustus Pablo on melodica.

Production values similar to the following album Revolution Dub (Perry's subsequent record, reissued in the 1980s on Island Records worldwide).

The album was reissued in 2013 on LP through Secret Records.
