Artist rendition of the completed aircraft. That is one crazy setup for the cockpit. Basically no forward windows due to, I suppose, an attempt to reduce the fuselage cross-section. Probably uses a display screen for the pilot so he can "see" forward.

Is that a sun roof, moon roof, half-roof, or no roof at all?

The “Spirit of St. Lois” and some other aircraft from before War 2 had no forward view. Periscopes.
