The KOBRA in real life.

The Kobra is a Russian Red Dot Sight used by military and police organizations on AK style mounts, with some variants adapted to fit standard accessory rails. It has a variety of reticles.


Battlefield 3

"Russian Red Dot Sight used by military and police organizations on AK style mounts, adapted to fit standard accessory rails; features a single Red Dot reticle."

— Battlelog description

The Kobra sight is an optic in Battlefield 3. It is identical in function to its American counterpart, the Reflex (RDS), but it has 3 intersecting red lines, pointing downwards, to the left, and to the right.

It is unlocked as the first optical attachment for many weapons originating from Russia and many other weapons, except sniper rifles, where 12x Ballistic is always the first to be unlocked. It is also unlocked for American and European weapons, such as M16A3, SCAR-H and M98B, relatively late, at approximately 200 kills.

The Kobra is ideal for close quarters combat due to its quick aiming speed and clear sight picture. Many players prefer it over the Reflex due to its frame being much less bulky and hence being less intrusive on the player's peripheral vision, and for its unique reticle not blocking out the center of the player's target, hence making it clear to see exactly where it's aimed. Choosing one over the other is simply a matter of personal preference.
