No Nuclear weapons were used during the cold war. The cold war was a stand off between soviet Russia and America, where they treated either with a lot of suspicion and distrust. However, it was not a 'War' in the literal sense of the word.

No nuclear weapons were used in the Cold War. The reason it is called that is that the United States and the Soviet union never came into direct military conflict. The only time that atomic weapons have been used was during the Second World War. The USA has only used nuclear weapons in combat twice. A Nuclear weapon has not been used in action since 1945. Many countries tested nuclear weapons during the cold war such as USA, Russia, France and the United Kingdom. While none were used in combat a wide variety were tested and you could argue that these were effectively used in the Cold War due to the fact their testing was a deterrent. Examples of nuclear weapons designed for use in the cold war include the USA's Castle Bravo, Russia's Tsar Bomb, the M-388 Davy Crockett and a variety of ICBM's.
