Experienced B system hydraulic failure resulting in alternate gear extension. The nose gear did not fully extend and collapsed on landing. The aircraft scraped the nose the length of the runway, and when it reached to arresting cable on the departure end, the cable went over the jet and came to rest at the dorsal and vertical tail. Although significantly damaged, was deemed repairable.
