The glass flower house in the nose is not for aiming, but for the position of the navigator, because the Soviet avionics system was relatively backward at that time.
When it comes to this, it should have both this function. Earlier, the British Lancaster bomber in World War II had a glass cover with its nose looking down. At that time, there was no avionics system. The bomber aimed at the projectile with an optical sight. STEAM had a game called Bomber Team, which was a game simulating the operation of the bomber crew. The glass cover of the nose inside was the operating position of the bomber, the navigator instead sits behind the captain and is often pulled to be a machine gunner or repairman
