The Admiralty Corps (Arabic: الفيلق الأوّل al-faylaq al-awwal) is one of three operational corps of the Arab Navy, and by far the largest. All naval fleets and subordinate battle fleets, divisions, flotillas, etc. are part of the Admiralty Corps, thereby including all operational naval vessels.

The other two corps of the Arab Navy are the Naval Air Corps, which operates all naval aircraft, and the Amphibious Corps, the Navy's own force of Marines (amphibious light infantry).
