1. Renewed Strategic Threat from Cuba Despite the Cold War being considered over, Cuba is again being viewed as a potential military staging ground for U.S. adversaries. The concern is not nuclear missiles like in 1962, but modern drone systems. 2. Drone Warfare Changes Everything Drones are: Cheap, mobile, and hard to detect Capable of low-altitude flight (avoiding radar) Effective in large swarm attacks Examples cited: Russia using Iranian drones in Ukraine Drones attacking infrastructure like power grids 3. Geographic Danger Cuba is only ~90 miles from Florida, making it: Extremely close for drone operations A potential launch platform against U.S. cities, ports, and infrastructure 4. Growing Alliance Against the U.S. Increasing military and intelligence cooperation between Cuba, Russia, and Iran Activities include: Naval visits Political meetings Agreements on military and intelligence coordination Iran also expanding influence across Latin America 5. “Gray Zone Warfare” Strategy Adversaries may avoid direct war and instead use: Drone attacks Cyber warfare Infrastructure sabotage Disinformation Goal: Disrupt the U.S. without triggering full-scale conflict 6. Potential Attack Scenarios Drone swarms launched from Cuba could target: Military bases Airports Power grids Ports and fuel systems Even small attacks could cause: Economic disruption Public panic 7.
