    Is the windshield broken?
    Or is it just the coating peeled off?

    If it’s just the coating.
    Don’t think for a second I wouldn’t try some paint before spending $1200.

    Yep, windshields are expensive as the TSS camera/equipment must have a clear optical view and be recalibrated as part of the process. Aftermarket can be cheaper, but not always in a good way in this case. See a glass repair shop, that might be addressable. However it looks like a pin strike with a cone shape fallout on the inside. That isn’t repairable as far as I know. Insurance claim is your best bet.

    My windshield guy did it for $275 pilkington glass. Didn’t unplug the radar camera, it slides off and slides back on.

    It's a secret
    I'm perplexed as to why the scenery behind the exposed glass portion is very distorted.

    looks like the mirror was ripped off and the mount took some glass with it. Same exact thing happened when I had to replace the windshield on my GranTurismo. Pilkington

    While a perfectly valid response, the correct answer is bailing wire and duct tape.

    Were you hanging from the mirror. Think you would need a new windshield if that pulled glass with it. Throw a rock at the outside then it’s covered lol. Hope you get it sorted

    I'd try painting it with some black model paint.
    Then take the $1199 for hookers & blow.
