The Ikarus IK-2 was a 1930s high-wing all-metal single seat monoplane fighter aircraft of indigenous design built for the Royal Yugoslav Air Force. The IK-2 was designed by Kosta Sivčev and Ljubomir Ilić who saw the desirability of a home-developed aircraft industry in their country whose aerial forces had up to that point been supplied by machines from abroad.

Made by Ikarbus.
