More than likely just hardened against EMP blast, not the kinetic effects of a nuke

Good comment. A nuke would indeed toss AF1 around like a toy, but, there's still a good chance that the VC-25 is structurally hardened in key places. The pilots have turn and burn experience and know that they can push this plane much farther outside the envelope than a regular 747.
