Weapons
The B-1B is no longer armed with nuclear weapons but is capable of
carrying the AGM-86B air launch cruise missile (ALCM) and the AGM-69
short-range attack missile.

Cruise missiles can be categorized by size, speed (subsonic or
supersonic), and range, and whether launched from land, air, surface
ship, or submarine. Often versions of the same missile are produced
for different launch platforms; sometimes air- and submarine-launched
versions are a little lighter and smaller than land- and ship-launched
versions.

The tomahawk missile is ship or submarine launched, develpoement the
air launched variety was abandoned years ago.
The AGM misssile is launched by stratofortress bombers.
