  • Uranium "gun" fission bomb
  • Plutonium "implosion" fission bomb
  • Uranium "implosion" fission bomb
  • Composite (Uranium/Plutonium) "implosion" fission bomb
  • Boosted fission bomb
  • Deuterium/Tritium "wet" (cryogenic liquid) fusion bomb
  • Lithium Deuteride "dry" fusion bomb
  • Clean (reduced fallout) fusion bomb
  • Dirty (increased fallout) fusion bomb

Many of these overlap or can be combined or altered in various ways, for example the so called "neutron bomb" is a type of clean fusion bomb designed to emit unusually strong neutron radiation at detonation. Also any fusion bomb needs some type of fission bomb "primary" to set it off.
