- the driver sits in front and the commander or shooter behind. In this arrangement, the crew gives a good view for the driver.
- the trough is arranged in the vehicle transverse direction between the wheels in particular the front wheels. This results in particular a high mine safety at low vehicle weight. In the case of a mine suspension of the wheels they are simply blown off and fly laterally past the vehicle pan. If the vehicle trough extended over the wheels, it would have to be considerably strengthened so that a blasted wheel poses no danger to the crew accommodated in the trough. This would lead to a significant weight gain of the vehicle.

- a person can leave the vehicle, even if the vehicle is directly next to a wall, for example, a load space.
- the tub width is smaller than the outer track width.
- the tub width is less than the average track width.
- the trough width is less than the inner track width, so that the trough does not protrude beyond the wheels.
- the outer track corresponds to the distance of the outer edges of the outer wheels of a vehicle axle.
- the average track width corresponds to the average distance of the wheels of an axle on both sides of the vehicle and the inner track width to the distance of the inner edges of the wheels of an axle.
- the ratio of tub width to vehicle width is less than 0.8, in particular less than 0.6, particularly preferably less than 0.5. This also creates the smallest possible protected combat space, which makes it possible to reduce the weight of the vehicle.

- the wheel arches are arranged next to the tub. They are no longer an integral part of the vehicle cabin.
- the wheel arches do not come with a primary
- the guide module may have a GE bent bottom plate.

- the bottom plate may be bent in the vehicle longitudinal direction, preferably via a transverse bending edge.
- a trough is formed by the bottom plate, which forms a part of the bottom of the guide module and at least a part of the side walls of the guide module.
- the laterally bent ends of the bottom plate end laterally higher than the wheels. In this way, a floor can be created for the guide module, which manages with few welds. As a result, the mine strength of the tub is increased.
- the tray formed by the bottom plate is closed at the front by a closure plate.
- the front closure panel may be bent to close the front lower portion of the tray and form the front upper portion of the vehicle nose.
- the front upper part of the vehicle nose may be formed by another plate.

- an embodiment of the side walls has proven to be particularly advantageous as an inclined surface.
- the Deflektoreigenschaften the side wall at a mine detonation are particularly favorable. When wringing and tearing a wheel due to a mine explosion, this results in a favorable angle of impact for flying parts of the suspension, as they impinge steeply on the inclined surface.
- the inclined surfaces are formed obliquely to the vertical and / or obliquely forward.
- the helix angle is preferably in the range between 5 ° and 30 °, in particular in the range between 10 ° and 20 °.

- the arrangement of the connecting elements on the inclined surfaces of the side walls results in the case of a mine exposure of the explosion pressure at a favorable angle to the vehicle cabin and acts on the welds of the joint. This further improves the stability and mine protection of the guide module.
- the vehicle may have for increased mine protection a preferably plate-shaped additional bottom protection, which can be arranged below the tub, in particular detachably.
- the guide module can be connected via damping elements with the driving module.
- the damping elements between the guide module and the driving module dampen the vehicle's cab against shocks of the chassis and increase the comfort for the crew.
- the guide module can be hung on the driving module, for example.
- the connecting elements By providing a plurality of joints instead of an integral structure of the frame and guide module, the number of welded joints in the floor area can be reduced. This improves the mine protection.
- the guide module is detachably connected to the driving module.
- the guide module can be relatively easily solved and replaced by the driving module. For this purpose, only a separation of the connection points, the electronics and power supply and pedals and steering is then required.
