The unit was formed as the 563rd Fighter Aviation Regiment of a two-squadron composition near Moscow in the fall of 1941.

In February 1945, the 116th IAP was given the honorary name "Radomsky" for covering Red Army forces during combat missions to capture the Polish city of Radom. In 1982, the 116th Guards received brand new Su-24's of the Soviet Air Forces.

In July 1992, the regiment became part of the Belarusian Air Force, with personnel taking an oath of allegiance to the new republic.
During reforms of the Air Force, it was reorganized into the 116th Guards Bomber Aviation Base with the preservation of all its Soviet era awards and honorary titles.
