It seem to be Cobra I... I think it is bad to receive Cobra I... Otokar II must be better then Cobra I because they have experience from Cobra I so Cobra II must be better then Cobra I... Simple... So what can be the reason to receive Cobra I ?

Otokar Cobra I

Otokar Cobra II

Cobra is a combat proven platform, which saved many lives. It is also a cheap solution for paramilitary forces.

Obviously the authorities know what they are doing because they have specific requirements, no matter what version they get. So questioning their decision is nothing we can do.

Although one thing I didn't get, whats happened to v shape in cobra 2 ?

I guess they found a way to compensate the V shaped belly.

Good question, brother. I looked it up and found this answer:

V-hulls are incorporated in armored vehicle designs in several different ways. Many vehicles, such as the BAE Systems RG-33 incorporate the V-hull into a monocoque chassis, while others, such as the ATF Dingo and International MaxxPro use a body-on-frame chassis, with an armored V-hull crew compartment, and an additional V or semicircular shaped piece protecting the driveline.[6] Others, such as the Cougar H have a V-hull crew compartment, and allow the driveline and suspension components to be sacrificed in an attack, while maintaining the safety of the crew.

Turkish Army orders CSI's
Husky Mark III mine detectors
5 September 2013
Critical Solutions International
(CSI) has received a contract for
supply of its two-operator Husky
Mark III vehicle mounted mine
detectors (VMMDs) to the Turkish
Army.
Awarded to CSI's distributor IPA
Defence and its strategic partner
DCD Protected Mobility, the
unspecified contract covers the
supply of four Husky vehicles to help enhance mine and improvised
explosive device (IED) detection, interrogation and clearance capabilities
of the Turkish military.
Vehicles supplied under the contract will be fitted with several mission
equipment packages, such as the Fassi M20AL lightweight composite
interrogation arm, QinetiQ-NA-built rocket-propelled grenade net
protection system (Q-Net), as well as a 360° situational awareness
camera system, jointly manufactured by CSI and Torc Robotics.
CSI's CEO, Mike McCormack, said the Husky vehicle selection
represents Turkish government's significant investment in saving lives
and improving the capability of the national army.
''The two-operator Husky vehicle, equipped with the Fassi Interrogation
Arm, Q-Net and a 360° camera system provides the essential technology
for threat detection and interrogation, and will help protect the lives of
service members and civilians,'' McCormack said.
''The IED is also not limited to recent US
theatres of combat operations and international
militaries are increasingly recognising the need
to have this life-saving advanced detection
capability.''
The Husky MK III VMMD is a single occupant
mine-resistant landmine and IED detection
vehicle, designed to enable rapid and efficient
route clearance by creating safe passage for
military convoys and civilian vehicles in both rural
and urban environments.
An upgraded version of Husky VMMD, Husky MK III features a V-shaped
hull to deflect any blast away from the operator and is also capable of
rolling over a pressure-sensitive explosive device without triggering an
explosion.
More than 500 Husky MK III vehicles have been used to date for
operations in Iraq and Afghanistan
