It is equivalent to the rank of Brigadier general (OF-6 or one-star rank) and was introduced on 11 July 1995.[1] The previous Royal Romanian Air Force of the Kingdom of Romania also had a similar rank called General de escadră aeriană.

The term "flotilă aeriană" (air flotilla) was introduced in 1929.[2] Equivalent to an air wing and usually consisting of three air groups,[3] the unit existed until 1949 when the flotillas were converted to aviation regiments.[4] The present-day Air Bases of the Romanian Air Force were also briefly renamed to flotillas between 2010 and 2013.[5]
