I know I was thinking more B-66 being a light bomber but for some reason I posted a B-58 my mind just sort of shunts it in that group due to its small (nuclear)payload and it being replaced with FB-111 doesn't help.
Dropping a pair of nukes on Soviet positions is a perfectly good role of tactical bombing from a Cold War mindset afterall.

True but people also thought it was a proper fighter for a long time no matter how much the AF said no it ain't.
Like I said a lot of it comes down to how people view things
>same with the S/MTD
Yes and no when you remember the original version was just a modified preproduction F-15B which carried everything
