The Black Ops III gum gives two Nukes, one per activation; the Black Ops 4 Elixir gives one per bottle. The Nuke page of the wiki lists it, with Reign Drops and I’m Feeling Lucky, among the ways to spawn a Nuke on purpose.

  • Kabooom!: the Infinite Warfare card that spawns a Nuke nearby.
  • Reign Drops: spawns all the core power-ups at once, a Nuke among them.
  • I’m Feeling Lucky: spawns a random power-up, which can be a Nuke.
  • Tactical Diffusion: the Black Ops 6 gum that works the other way: it disables the next Nuke explosion.
