Over the decades, the United States has developed dozens of different types of nuclear warheads, for many different uses. Some are dropped as bombs, some are fitted to inter-continental ballistic missiles, some are designed for artillery shells, and some are even used on air-to-air rockets. For a (complete?) listing, check out "Designations Of U.S. Nuclear Weapons" and "UNITED STATES: Nuclear warheads and applications".
