A body shell of an armored vehicle includes a front face carrying a bulletproof windscreen projecting towards an outside of the body shell, at least one side wall including an opening, the side wall being integral with the front face at a strut that is defined by a part of the side wall included between an edge of the opening and a rim of the side wall situated furthest outwards at the front of the vehicle. In the armored vehicle body shell, the strut extends beyond the front face towards the outside of the body shell, and the edge of the opening is situated near the front face so that a junction between the strut and the front face of the body shell is at the vicinity of the edge of the opening which forms a rear edge of the strut.
