The list of nuclear powers is kind of a joke anyway. Canada and Japan are not "nuclear powers", but both countries could build them if they wanted... same thing with many European countries and who knows who else.

Israel has never admitted to having a nuclear bomb, however its believed that they have small aircraft carried bombs, cruise missiles and there is also a rumor that they have submarine launched capabilities as well.
Remember that Canada used to have both field deployable and aircraft droppable nuclear weapons, they also had nuclear tipped air to air missiles to deal with Soviet Bombers.
Everyone says that they were disposed of, but the crazy person in me tends to think that in some stockpile we still have a nuclear tipped artillary shell just in case.
