Formation breaks to multiple runways are both fun and can be valuable learning experiences. Figuring out how to do what you want and not getting hammered. Tacan to missed approach transition to VFR downwind translates to tacan above gear and flap speed (don’t legally have to configure as no intent to land) down to missed approach HAT, followed by an expeditious turn to down followed by a climb to pattern altitude then configure to land. Also applicable precision approaches or random lows (not that we have really trained for those lately).

Be advised to stay away from homefield or adults eyes. While one can certainly weather the a** chewing the direct order prohibiting such training can put a damper future endeavors. Pick your opportunities
