I've always had a bad feeling about Cuba, and they've been pretty quiet recently. I posted a thread back in 2013 and one in 2012 about NK/Russian activity in Cuba but it didn't get much traction on here....I knew it would come back up!!!

Here's the thread, don't necro bump it, but cross-check some of the data - both threads 2012 and 2013 are linked - and see if anything useful can be found.

Thread: North Korea ship to Cuba 'broke arms embargo'...and how it may be related to Syria & Russia

Thread: Russia Seeks Naval Supply Bases In Cold War Allies Cuba, Vietnam


FROM THE ARTICLE in 2013:
"Officials found 25 containers of military hardware, including two Soviet-era MiG-21 fighter aircraft, air defence systems, missiles and command and control vehicles."

"The Chong Chon Gang left Russia's far east on 12 April and travelled across the Pacific Ocean before entering the canal at the start of June, with Cuba as its stated destination."
