do you not still have the option of just levelling off and flying away inverted until you can gain some air speed, and wouldn't that be the safe way out if you were a former fighter pilot comfortable with flying inverted all day long?
Not a display pilot but IMHO you'd almost always be better off spot rolling ( unloaded) and then pulling out, certainly once you've gone past the horizontal. AFAIK most older military types have a relatively low negative g limit and I suspect those limits and ultimately the structure itself really might not like a hard "push out" from an inverted descent ....but others with more experience might think differently.
