A little note concerning the stand-off weapons you mention for the B-1B: though

theoretically it could carry 8 ALCMs (internally), it is prohibited from carrying cruise

missiles by treaty with the SU/ FSU. SRAM-A retired from the inventory about

a decade ago. Though your reference source dates from 2002, it wasn't up to date.
