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.
