Turkey’s Otokar To Debut New Armored Vehicle ‘Cobra II’ This Week. Image: Daily Sabah


Turkish defense company Otokar will exhibit its newest Cobra II Load Carrier Armored Vehicle for the first time this week at the Efes 2018 Live-Fire Military Drills in the Aegean province of Izmir.

The Efes 2018 Live-Fire Military Drills, which run from May 7 to 11, aims to develop military and combat capabilities for joint operations, in preparation for actual military engagement.

The locally-produced vehicle has been developed for secure delivery of vital materials -- including ammunition, fuel, food and water -- to troops during operations and to military bases.

It has superior maneuverability with the capacity to carry 2.5 tons of load. The vehicle will be able to respond during day and night, in challenging terrain and climate and in different operational areas.

It has superior mobility since it can be used in both urban and rural areas.

Moreover, the vehicle also provides close protection and self-defensive firepower facilities with its anti-aircraft gun that can be mounted in its chassis. The vehicle can operate with 120 millimeters of mortars as well as the weapons of 5.56 and 7.62 millimeters.

Looks like shit and is totally overpriced.

That's because most of the equipment is foreign, including the steel it's made out of... otherwise it would be more competitive price wise, however, it's very well made.

Got to start somewhere. At the end of the day, having experience building domestic equipment will help in the long-run.

Sizin Türk malini kotulemekteki amaciniz nedir?

Cobra II isn't a bad looking vehicle, it's better than most of its international competitors from Europe, US or Russia. Looks better with a bullbar at front.

POH operates these vehicles in small numbers but Nural Ejder Yalcin is a better package overall, not only does it look more aggressive and has better proportions but it has specs which outshines Cobra II.

What takes me by surprise is how Turkish designers/engineers can be creative in designing a vehicle that looks better than what's available in the international market. We got some serious talented artistic designers who are good with computer imaging.
