Abstract

A utility vehicles, in particular for military purposes, with a chassis and a cab arranged on the frame of said chassis so that it can be tilted. The cab has a front module and a rear module. The front module forms a cabin for the driver and co-driver. The rear module forms a hood-like protective and stowage space for vehicle aggregates, parts and accessories. The floor of the front module is reinforced by two longitudinal floor members extended through the front module rear wall by supporting brackets to support the rear module. There are supports so that the rear module, can rest on the extended supporting brackets of the longitudinal floor members. On the front module rear wall and at the front of the rear module bearer frame there are matching supporting and joining elements at different levels with flush boreholes or through-holes through which screws can be threaded to securely join the two cab modules on a longitudinal, crosswise and vertical axis, and also enabling them to be released.
