20th Army Corps is a combined arms unit of the Ukrainian Ground Forces.
It was formed in March 2025 following the widescale reform of the Ukrainian military into the corps structure. It falls under the command of Operational Command East and is garrisoned in Kryvyi Rih, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.
In June 2025, the 20th Army Corps publicly revealed its structures and the brigades subordinated to it.

A month later, Lieutenant Colonel Oleksandr Korsukov had been appointed to the position of corps commander, replacing Maksym Kituhin.
