The Air Force was formed on 1 Jul 1973, from an earlier Army formation and air assets transferred across to the new organisation. There have been several name changes along the way: 
- Escadrille Nationale Togolaise in 1973
- Groupement Aérien Togoloaise at the end of 1980, and
- Force Aérienne Togolaise on 16 Apr 1997.
