6 is the World rank of Israel’s nuclear arsenal by volume of bombs, according to the U.S. Defence Intellegence Agency estimates.
100 - 250 is the number of nukes in the arsenal, by the Federation of American Scientists’ count.
3 is the number of deployment options for Israeli nuclear weapons - one by air, two by land, three by sea.
2 is the number of Israel’s Dolphin-class, German-made nuclear submarines, which give it a second-strike capability.
