The Cobra (Turkish: Kobra) is a family of armoured tactical vehicle developed by Turkish firm Otokar. It is produced in two generations – the Cobra I and the Cobra II. The first generation has some subsystems from the Humvee.[1][2] The second generation was designed as an improvement over the first with better mobility, payload capacity, and enhanced protection against ballistic and mine threats.[3]
