You can do the same thing with something along the lines of the F-111 or Tornado as well, just with a smaller payload. I'm not sure how effective it would have ended up being in that role however.

I’ve already stated why ICBMs are out of the question. I will take your advice about speed though. Just gonna get a ton of high altitude supersonic bombers to try and outrun any ground to air weapons. Or at least with stealth to hide. Any recommendations for a high altitude, supersonic, stealth bomber?

On topic of nuclear bombers. has there been attempt at putting a nuke with a long fuse/delay so low altitude bombers could bomb.
Like with conventional weapons designed for the same purpose.
A fuse that delays detonation long enough for the launching aircraft to get clear is standard for most nuclear weapons. Further tactics for low level bombers not getting hit with their own nuke include parachutes and my personal favorite, Over-the-shoulder toss bombing

Pppfft, needs more momentum bomb. The bomb tosses itself before the big finish...
Maximum 60s gigachad solution is supersonic vulcan with quad skybolts...
