Emphasizing that COBRA II draws attention to its successful
performance in Africa, General Manager Serdar Görgüç, continued, “Otokar COBRA
II is a combat-proven vehicle with its exceptional performance suitable for
conventional and asymmetric warfare conditions. We are proud that COBRA II is
now successfully serving more than ten end users worldwide and is known as the
best in its class. We strongly believe that the performance of our vehicles is
the most important reference for our potential customers. We stand out with our
ability to respond quickly to end users’ ever-changing requirements and needs
thanks to our design, test, and manufacturing capabilities. In addition to
COBRA II, ARMA 6x6 and ARMA 8x8 vehicles will be one of the first choices of
different users in Africa in the coming years.”
Otokar General Manager Serdar Görgüç stated that Otokar
military vehicles serve on five continents in very different regions and
climatic conditions: “We reflect the experiences we have gained in Turkiye and various
regions of the world to our vehicle development efforts. Thanks to our
engineering power, design ability and superiority in technology, we make a
difference with our military vehicles and the wide product range we develop and
produce for current and future threats. Our military vehicles with different
models and features, such as 4x4 and 8x8, are currently in service in different
regions of Africa. Our integrated logistics support systems and delivery times
are also extremely competitive internationally. In any case, we stand by our
users even after the sale. The uninterrupted support we have provided in the
challenging conditions of Africa in the past has always taken us one step
ahead. We want to improve our existing relations during the AAD Fair and
evaluate new regional cooperation opportunities. In this way, we aim to
contribute more to our country’s exports.”
Emphasizing that the COBRA II vehicle especially attracted
attention with its performance in the African continent, Görgüç said: “Our
COBRA II vehicle, which is considered one of the world’s leading vehicles in
its class, is a vehicle that has proven itself by being used in various
operations in Africa. It has also demonstrated its effectiveness in
asymmetrical combat conditions. Our vehicles are widely used in African Union
and United Nations peacekeeping operations. Besides all this, COBRA II
successfully serves more than ten end users worldwide. The satisfaction of our
current users with the performance of our tool is also a reference for new
users. All this makes us extremely proud. In addition to the COBRA II, we
believe that many regional users will prefer our ARMA 6x6 and ARMA 8x8 vehicles in the coming years.”
COBRA II stands out with its protection, carrying capacity
and large interior volume. In addition to its mobility, the COBRA II, which can
carry ten personnel, including the commander and the driver, offers security
thanks to its protection against ballistic, mine and IED threats. COBRA II is
optionally produced in amphibious type and perfectly adapts to different tasks
required. The armoured vehicle is especially preferred due to its weapon
integration and mission hardware equipment options. It carries out many
missions in Turkiye and export markets, including border protection, internal
security and peacekeeping operations. COBRA II can also act as a personnel
carrier, weapon platform, land surveillance radar, CBRN reconnaissance vehicle,
command control vehicle and ambulance thanks to its modular structure.
