Painted all black, the lower pattern of the nose looks like a B24D with its optical 'flat' but with the upper nose turret replaced by the glazed upper part possbly from a B24A.
It's almost certainly a B-24H, turret removed and replaced with a specially created 'glasshouse'; there are insufficient clues to suggest a serial no. The MG IS equipped with flash reducers/eliminators.
