Going by your drawing of the raindrops, it's reduced on roughly half the windshield - the center part - which happens to roughly compare to the width of the hood fairing.

Consider what the windshield of almost any streamliner looks like.

The hood - canopy angle is far more gentle; the canopy bulge is about as wide as the top of the fuselage, with gentle curves to the sides and aft, giving the air every chance to move aside or over it.
If anything, your Varna is pointing to a full width, gently curved fairing
