Description

KAYA 4x4 is specially designed to provide mine and ballistic protection for the troops on all terrain conditions while offering high mobility, ease of handling, and outstanding crew comfort. Otokar's know-how and experience in mine-protected vehicles played an important role in the design and development process of the KAYA. Kaya Otokar is the 4x4 MPV mine-protected armored vehicle based on a Daimler UNIMOG chassis.

Status
Production as required. KAYA is in service of different land forces.

KAYA MRAP variants:

- Kaya Troop Carrier:  The first version of the Kaya MPV is in the troop carrying role but its flexible design enables it to be easily adapted for a wide range of roles and missions such as ambulance and command post vehicle.
- Kaya Cargo Carrier:  In addition to the baseline Kaya MPV in the APC role, Otokar has also developed the prototype stage of a mine-protected cargo carrier. This retains the fully protected two-person cab for the commander and driver but to the rear is a flatbed unprotected cargo area that can be fitted with drop sides and a tailgate.
