Yes, the B-52G did carry ASQ-151 Electro-optical Viewing System (EVS),
which consisted of AVQ-22 LLLTV and AAQ-6 FLIR. But the main purpose
of this system was to prevent the bomber from flying into the ground
at night.

Just wondering, how were B-52G bombers supposed to find targets in
anti-ship strikes? Were they to use their own sensors or depend on
offboard targeting?
Soviet naval bombers had big sea search radars, but B-52G didn't seem
to have one...
