You're limited to 5.5 g's with that load, but there's no problem with rolling inverted. In fact, some deliveries basically require it. This picture was taken over Iraq and the loadout is standard for over there right now. Two GBU-12 laser guided bombs and one GBU-31 GPS guided munition. Atlantic City is currently over there as we speak, but this picture was from the last rotation.

I will take your word. 5.5G...doesn't really take that much to get to that kind of loading...IIRC, when I had a Viper ride, we put it to 5.2G on post-takeoff turnout. We got it all the way to 8.7G...convinced me I was better suited for maintenance anyway!
