"Our combat-proven expertise in land systems and associated R&D, engineering, and testing capabilities, as well as our broad product range, put us at the forefront of the global defense industry," Görgüç continued.

At FEINDEF, Otokar is showcasing the Tulpar, a state-of-the-art armored tracked armored vehicle equipped with a Belgian Cockerill 1030 30 mm automatic cannon turret. Known for its mobility, high firepower, and survivability features, the Tulpar is designed as a multi-purpose vehicle with weight variants ranging from 28,000 kg to 45,000 kg, addressing future global requirements.

The future-oriented design of the Tulpar focuses on operational flexibility through the use of common components and chassis across a wide range of vehicle variants. It has been rigorously tested in the toughest climates and on rough terrains by different users worldwide. The Tulpar boasts best-in-class ballistic and mine protection, thanks to its modular armor technology and structure that can be configured and scaled to meet evolving threats.

In addition to providing an effective solution in missions requiring high firepower, the Tulpar can operate in diverse combat environments. From urban and built-up areas to woodlands and soft surfaces where main battle tanks cannot operate due to their heavy weights, Tulpar proves its versatility and robustness.

Otokar's exhibition at FEINDEF reinforces its position as a global player in the defense industry, showcasing its advanced engineering and commitment to meeting the changing needs of armed forces worldwide.
