Întreprinderea de Construcții Aeronautice Românești (ICAR, also icar) (Romanian Aeronautical Design Enterprise), was a Romanian aircraft manufacturer. The company produced aircraft of its own design and under license.[1]

History

Întreprinderea de Construcții Aeronautice Românești was founded in Bucharest in 1932 by Mihail Racovitd. In 1938, it was planned to rename the company Uzinele I.C.A.R. — Societate Anonimd and move it to Transylvania. However, this never occurred.[2][1] ICAR closed in the early 1950s and production transitioned to the manufacture of industrial fans.[3]
