The invention relates to a helmet with retractable visors for fast day/night reconfiguration. For that, the helmet (1) is designed at the articulations of the visors to allow the use of articulations that can be disassembled without tools. The day visor (15) is thus made modular and removable and is mounted on the helmet by a translational movement in a direction (F) allowing the upper part (16) to engage in a saggital guide rail of the helmet and allowing rotation axes of the helmet to engage in the articulation part of the lateral arms (8) of the visor, locking being effected by hand using a pivoting lever (8). For night missions, the day visor is removed and replaced with a night module mounted on the helmet using the same type of articulation. The invention applies in particular to helmets for aircraft pilots, allowing unprepared ejection.
