The Twentieth Destroyer Flotilla was a formation of destroyers of the Royal Navy. The flotilla changed composition often as ships were damaged, retired or transferred.

Composition

By November 1918, the entire flotilla and their leaders were equipped to lay mines, leaders carrying up to 66 mines and destroyers 38 or 44. The torpedo tubes and guns removed when the mines were shipped could be placed back aboard with enough notice.[1]
