The Cuban military showed off its underground arsenals


Videos from underground weapons storage facilities in Cuba, where a team from one of the Russian TV channels was invited, became public knowledge. The underground premises contain a large number of Soviet-style weapons.


The depth of the tunnels is about 100 meters. The distance from the visited storage facility to the US coast is about 180 km.


The footage demonstrates the large scale of such structures. Particular attention is paid to the safety of warehouses and the cleanliness that reigns in the corridors with weapon systems. The rooms are also dry and easy to breathe. Thus, under conditions of competent conservation and in good condition, many artillery systems, tanks, armored personnel carriers and other military equipment are stored in Cuba. equipment, as well as ammunition for it.


It is interesting to note that the United States has officially recognized the impossibility of hitting underground weapons storage facilities in Cuba.

The film crew from Russia was allowed into the arsenals because of the special relationship between Moscow and Havana. It cannot be ruled out that a certain amount of weapons from Freedom Island will be supplied to the Russian Federation, and they will be able to be used in the special operation zone.

Meanwhile, the Russian Armed Forces began using new Scalpel loitering ammunition in Ukraine. The first batch of “Scalpels” in the amount of 15 units was delivered to the combat zone. Two dozen such ammunition are produced per month, but if necessary, the production rate can be increased.

    Under the USSR, there was a Soviet tank brigade there. all weapons were left to the Cubans during the withdrawal of troops during the collapse of the USSR. the signal troops remained. I was a teenager in Cuba at the time.

    We have lived, for the Northern Military District they even remembered the Cuban storage facilities, and where is the strategist D Medvedev in the presidency, what he said - we have enough brigades and compact Armed Forces of the Russian Federation (I personally read the statements of that time). And they cut with Serdyukov’s “circumcisions”, so much so that today you need to beg in the DPRK, and in Cuba, and wherever possible.

      Before Serdyukov, the Americans saw all the funding for the army. bank payments went through them. And what now surprises the West and provides Shoigu is the merit of Serdyukov. written off for asphalt according to documents and allowed for modernization. If Russia is begging on its own, then why doesn’t the whole West stick to Ukraine, which supposedly should be liberated and supported by Russia alone? Is it Serdyukov’s fault too? I don’t remember Putin going to the DPRK and begging like Zelensky. to have allies against Khokhlyat Nazism is a shame, but to receive help is to beg? Did the USSR also beg when Mongolia supplied horses to the Second World War?

      Well, if the fighting has resulted in the widespread collection of weapons by the West, in Ukraine, then it is not surprising that Russia also needs support. The intensity of ammunition use is similar to WWII. There's no time for trickery here.

      Ukraine is a good testing ground for recycling old equipment and ammunition.

    It is interesting to note that the United States has officially recognized the impossibility of hitting underground weapons storage facilities in Cuba.

    - a cunning, intelligent enemy always humbles himself and misleads with helplessness, rather than boasts. At the same time, judging by previous operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, the United States has powerful ammunition capable of breaking buried structures.
    In addition, the states are always talking about the last car of ammunition and the last delivery of something to Ukraine. And then suddenly we find out that something is again being delivered there secretly without publicity.
    In general, it is better not to stick out and break the enemy, let him think whatever he wants about the situation, than to promote defense factories and expose them to attack.

    Meanwhile, this reminds me of something..... ah, Prigogine in such a storage facility..
    So where is Prigozhin himself? Where are the reserves shown to them?
    I think everyone knows.... “His Poles” did not help him (association, of course)

    How clean and tidy everything is here, and it’s the same in the DPRK. Comprador Russia is even behind in this, which is not surprising.

    They shouldn't have shown it. There could be a surprise. Now there will be no surprise.
