In 1987 Otokar signed a Licence agreement with Land Rover to manufacture Defenders. Currently, a full range of Defender products is offered, in 90, 110, or 130 inch wheelbase, including ambulances and fire appliances. Military specification vehicles are offered in 12 volt or 24 volt versions.
In the early 1990's, Otokar combined its armour technology with its experience in military vehicles by developing Turkey's first 4x4 light-armoured tactical wheeled vehicles. The 'Akrep' and 'Otokar APC' (a licensed Shorland design) are both armoured Defender derivatives, while 'Cobra' is a joint development with AM General and incorporates parts from the Humvee. In 1997, Otokar moved to its new plant in Sakarya, Arifiye, where it developed a state of the art armoured vehicle testing and production facility. Apart from being the main supplier to the Turkish Military Forces, Otokar also supplies it's armoured range to various allied countries. Otokar is now listed in the NATO supplier index.
