I would love to see a schematic or drawing of a B-52 with four engines. Do
any
exist?

Yes, but a quick search under "B-52 RE" (as in re-engine) or "B-52J" didn't
turn it up. I also checked Boeing's homepage as well as Allisons and Rolls
Royce, no soap. A drawing does exist, in fact someone who visited KBAD around
97-98 time frame (we had several visits from guys at HQ USAF, Boeing and
Allison-Rolls Royce)must have handed some out. We had one hanging in Life
Support and others scattered around our squadron. It shows a nice artist
drawing of a re-engined B-52 launching cruise missiles. The title on the top
says; "B-52RE".
