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

what is the benefit of V shape? stealthy or something?

what is the benefit of V shape? stealthy or something?

"The purpose of V-hulls is to increase vehicle and crew survivability by deflecting an upward directed blast from a landmine (or Improvised Explosive Device) away from the vehicle, while also presenting a sloped armor face.[4][5] By presenting its armor at an angle, it increases the amount of material a ballistic projectile must pass through in order to penetrate the vehicle, and increases the chance of deflection."

From a famous game called Arma 3 and the front vehicle is the wheeled APC used in the game which looks very much like Otokar Arma.

@Neptune I am must say, Turkey has some of the most impressive land vehicles segment out there. Specially the Cobra-2 and Arma.

Has anyone laid eyes yet on the modified Cobra-2 based on solutions derived from AM general's project?

I saw this one earlier, the pic I posted is a modified version with add-on armor for even higher protection.

They are testing it ,TSK needs more then Ones of this Vehicles.

It´s not easy to decide between Arma or AV-8 (Improved Version of PARS).

All we know is that they order 2015 new Altay´s and some new Cobra´s.

Turkish firm ‘set to buy BMC to produce local car’

Motor company BMC, one of Çukurova Group’s companies seized by Turkey’s Savings Deposit Insurance Fund (TMSF) in May, is planned to be sold to Çalık Group to manufacture a local car that is encouraged by the government, according to sources familiar with the firm.

The TMSF will sell BMC to Çalık Group, a conglomerate that has operations in energy, telecom, construction, finance, media, textile and mining, and “made in Turkey” cars will be manufactured in BMC, the sources claimed. BMC, reportedly, has already begun preparations for local car production, which has been promoted by the government in recent years.

BMC has been in a tight squeeze since May 2012, when the company first failed to pay salaries on time, and production at BMC factories has halted several times in the intervening period.

The Defense Ministry signed a deal in 2009 with BMC to produce 468 Kirpis, mine-resistant vehicles, to be delivered by the end of 2012. But BMC could not deliver 175 of 468 Kirpis. However, after the company was seized, TMSF announced that the company would restart the production of Kirpis.
