Doesn't that thing do over the shoulder nuke deliveries? Pull up, throw
nukeout, continue over the top, 1/2 cuban 8 type thing, accel and run like

It was designed to do "lay down" nuclear bomb runs, not loft. I've seen them do
some pretty agressive (for a big plane) pitch outs, but I'm not sure if they
could execute an immelman or not.

Don't see why not. If the high-altitude designed B-47s could do them (admittedly,
with some serious wing fatigue problems as a result), then the low-altitude
stressed B-1 shouldn't mind.
