Narrative:

During improve climb procedures for a B-737-200-9 aircraft, we experienced a nosewheel tire failure which was consequently ingested in the #2 engine causing compressor damage plus fuselage damage. Returned to cos (airport of departure) for landing causing extensive engine damage plus various dents in fuselage. Look into the safety aspect of the 'improve climb procedure' and good judgement and procedure should outweigh feasibility of finance when carrier constantly rtes underpwred aircraft to high altitude high load factor airports. Improve climb procedure should be the exception not the rule.
