While the Nazis produced and stockpiled various types of poisonous gases, including nerve gases such as tabun, sarin, and soman, there is little evidence to suggest that they used these gases on a large scale during World War II.

The most infamous use of poisonous gases by the Nazi regime was in the extermination camps during the Holocaust, where they used Zyklon B to murder millions of innocent people. However, the use of these gases during the Holocaust was primarily aimed at the mass killing of people in enclosed spaces, rather than as a weapon of war.

The use of toxic gases as a weapon of war was banned by the 1925 Geneva Protocol, which Germany signed, but then violated during the war. While there were reports of limited use of poisonous gas during the war, it was not a significant component of the Nazi military strategy.

In conclusion, while the Nazi regime had access to various types of poisonous gases, there is little evidence to suggest that these gases were used on a large scale during World War II, either as a weapon of war or as a tool of genocide, apart from the use of Zyklon B in extermination camps during the Holocaust.
