History
right|thumb|250px|Utva plant in Pančevo
Utva was established on 5 June 1937 in Zemun, which since 1940 has been located in Pančevo, and initially produced simple gliders. In 1939, Utva expanded its production to include light piston engine aircraft. The factory sustained significant damage during the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia in 1999.
In 2017, Serbian defence company Yugoimport SDPR became the majority stakeholder of Utva with around 96% of total shares.
