They forgot the windows?!
They omitted them. Which is understandable for a freighter, and passenger airplanes like An-74 or Lockheed Galaxy - but those still have cockpit windows. Even shuttles which fly 18 times the speed of light and above have windscreen.

Try to taxi a plane 143 m long with no cockpit windows... Also, what do you think will the pitch angle be on touchdown?
