OS/2 installation archive (official name unknown) is a family of compressed archive formats used for software installation on OS/2.

This article covers the format with signature bytes a5 96 fe ff. For signature a5 96 fd ff, see FTCOMP.

Apparently, OS/2 provides an UNPACK.EXE utility that can decompress the files.
