If you look at planes they allways have their windshield go from horizon to 45 degrees or more above the horizon. Why is it not the other way around? There is way more to see and be aware of beneath the plane than above. So why do they not do this?
It’s impractical because of the technology in the nose, and unnecessary for any non-military aviation. Military bombers and joint strike fighters use cameras to see beneath them. Unless you’re looking to drop a bomb with accuracy you don’t need to see the ground.
