Mar A Lago is drone & missle range from Cuba. He should not be poking that bear.

Does Cuba even have the missiles and drones to do this? The Cuban Revolutionary Armed Forces are equipped with mostly outdated and cobbled together technology.

I couldn’t find any long range strike capability in this [list of equipment](Cuban Revolutionary Armed Forces). That doesn’t mean they don’t have any. A couple of containers filled with Shahed long range drones could be hiding in a warehouse. Serious ballistic missiles are less likely to exist. I couldn’t find any info on the Air Force owning cruise missiles for their jets.

Cuba could run a fierce defense and Guerilla war against an full invasion. They have the culture, experience, equipment, and organization for it. That is, if the will to fight is strong enough
