Most of the data is not new.

Chrome dome flights and other active Nuke carrier aircraft running racetrack paths were common in the cold war.

The incidents like this one cause the us to invest in passive action locks and 1 point explosives which nearly equaled the earlier “pit” design for safety.

for a tech desc.

Very simple to find:
https://www.google.com/search?q=story+behind+Savannah+nuke
It is the first link that pops up.

It's still out there in the ocean somewhere. Never been found.
