- fissile fuels used: Pu239, U235, U233
- fusible fuels used: hydrogen isotopes D & T, compound LiD
many other elements are used in chemical explosives, initiators, tampers, pushers, electronics, casings, parachutes, etc. needed to make a working deliverable bomb. I could not list them all here and they often vary widely from bomb to bomb, but the 6 fuels I listed are the only ones usable though different bombs use different ones or combinations of them.
