B1-B question

Just seen some piccies of the RIAT on another thread and it reminded me of the time I saw this a/c disply at Mildenhall several years ago.

I don't know if it was simply my eyes deceiving me, but after take-off the Lancer pulled into a vertical climb to an altitude of what seemed to be 5 - 7000'+ , proceeded to complete what looked like a half loop with a roll off the top before disappearing from view into some cloud.

It later gave a very impressive display, but no inverted manouevres, so can it actually do what I thought I saw. It's bothered me for years.

Thanks in advance.
