Friend of Poplan and Spartanian pilot.
Unlike his energetic friend who "doesn't miss any skirt", Ivan is more calm and likes to solve crosswords. However he always compete with Poplan on the ammount of enemy ships destroyed.

He died during episode 52: Death Match at Vermillion (part 2). His death was indirectly foretold by the last word he solved in his crossword - "What is the thing that happens to man only once?" - Funeral.
