yes, the Rockwell Lancer was/is foreseen for external loads ;

“Armament
Hardpoints: six external hardpoints for 50,000 lb (22,700 kg) of ordnance (use for weapons currently restricted by START I treaty)”

(from wikipedia ; Rockwell B-1 Lancer)

‘thus’ not for classic bombs, but for ‘Stand-Off’ weapons..

…………..still searching for good views..!

friendly yours, Etienne

I know that, really with the external load it’s more heavier armored than the Tu-160.

empty racks for cruise missiles:

Slightly OT but this the only external “load” I found

Thanks!!!

but, even after searching in my paper’ archives (back to the 70-ies), & Googeling in many ‘directions’… I have nothing to propose you as pics, not even a bad drawing…:o

looking also forward to more successful readers,

friendly yours,
ETIENNE

That’s what happened to me, it was extremely difficult to find any pictures on the net.

Finally, I’ve found a good drawing with external cruise missiles;
