IIAE CUBAN MILITARY SITUATION
11. Cuba has one of the largest, most modern, and best
!;rained military establishments in Latin America. The Cuban
Armed Forces comprise an Army, Navy, Air and Air Defense
Force, and a Popular Defense Militia, all under the 3urts-
tion of the Ministry of the Armed Forces (MINFAR). A
paramilitary organization called the Border Guards, operated
by the Ministry of the Interior (MININT), maintains a watch
over Cuba's coastline, ready to seize anyone attempting to
nter or leave the country illegally.
2. Raul Castro, the younger brother of Fidel, in Armed
ees Minister in addition to being Deputy Prime Minister and
Second Secretary of the Cuban Communist Party. to in currently
tending a high-level school and First Vice Minister Juan
A lmeaida , veteran of the Sierra Naestre campaign, has temporar-
ily assumed the position of "Armed Forces Minister by Regula-
tory SubstitutioWuntil Raul returns. The Cuban Armed Forces
ire staffed by officers who have demonstrated their fidelity
Castro regime rather than to Communism per Be.
3. Although the primary mission of the Armed Forces in to
defend Cuba from external attack and from internal subversion,
troops are also used in the sugar harvest and for various
truction and agricultural projects. Obligatory military
:service (SMO) for males between 16 and 26 was started in

A shall force of 1,000 to 2,000 Soviet military advisers
cisns remains in Cuba but all. weapons and weapons
including those with short-range ground-to-ground,
end-to-air, and cruise missiles, are now under Cuban control.
The Soviet military contingent in Cuba helps to maintain and
some of the more sophisticated weapons and provides
dance and training in the use of the vast supplies of
ary equipment Cuba has received from the USSR.
5. The Cuban Army totals about 175,000 men of which 90,000
are regulars and the remaining 85,000 form a ready reserve
cable of immediate call-up. The Navy has about 7,000 men
e the Air Force bas 4 , 000 and the Air Defense Force has
3,000. These are backed up by a militia of about 100,000
en and women. There are an estima
corder Guard.
>_. Naval facilities afloat comprise 18 KOMAR guided missile
patrol craft based on the north coast near Havana, and 24
motor torpedo boats, 15 submarine chasers, and a small fleet
of lesser patrol craft distributed among the important ports
on the north and south coasts. All of the larger vessels
were provided by the Soviet Union. The four warships Cuba
acquired prior to Castro's assumption of power, three old
'?frigates" of US origin and an antiquated "cruiser" built

and are used for training and target practice. Smaller pre-
1959 coastal patrol craft supplied by the US are often out
of service for lack of repair* and maintenance and most are
probably being gradually deactivated. The Soviet-supplied
eels are the backbone of the Navy.
`?` . The Cuban ground forces are equipped with more than
1,200 field artillery pieces and antitank guns supported by
over 100 130-mm, 132-4ense, and 200-mm truck-mounted rocket
launchers. Armored vehicles include about 600 T-34 and
T-54/55 medium tanks, 40 J3-2 heavy tanks, 16 PT-76 amphibious
tanks, 100 SU-l00 self-propelled assault guns, and close to
300 armored personnel carriers and scout cars. The ground
coo also have 8 FROG (Free-Rocket-Over-GVound) tactical
silo launchers with 50 FROG missiles and 20 SALISH
ground-to-ground tactical missile transporter/launchers with
d 100 SALISH missiles.
. The Air Defense Force consists of 24 surface-to-air
e sites with about 600 missiles protecting three major
itary centers (Greater Havana, Santa Clara/Cienfuegos,
Holguin/Santiago do Cuba) and an estimated 1#500 anti-
guns situated throughout the island. The antiair-
craft artillery ranges from wail calibre weapons up to
1005 guns, some of which are equipped with fire control
adar. The Air Defense Force has about 50 ZSU-57-2 twin-
mount 57-mm self propelled guns.

One section of the Cuban Armed forces has
been a source of acute embarrassment to the Castro regime.
This Is the UMAP, or Military Units for Aid to Production.
The UMAP was formed in November 1985 when the Cu
decided to provide a cheap source of unskilled
labor by inducting petty criminals, perverts, malcontents,
suspected counterrevolutionaries, clergymen, and militant
church members into work battalions housed in concentration
camp-type complexes in Camaguey Province. In this fashion,
not only was labor made available where it was needed most,
those elements comprising potential stumbling blocks for
the regime was eliminated from open society. Practically
speaking, however, the system was a failure. Marsh
discipline and abusive physical punishment meted out to
UMAP members evoked protests from families and friends,
UMAP units, with no incentive to work, were not noted for
their productivity. Although U11" was technically a part
of the Army, troops were given no weapons or military training.
They were paid 7 pesos a month and were rarely even
permitted to leave their camps on pass, They performed
agricultural work, usually in the canefields, seven days

a week from early in the morning until the evening when
they were compelled to attend classes in Communist in-
doctrination, Such was the reaction to U*AP that both
Fidel and Raul Castro were forced to make public statements
backing the system. Finally, in April of this year, all.
UVAP members over 27 years old were given their unconditional
release and there are rumors that the remaining members will
be absorbed into the regular Army and the iAP battalions
will be disbanded.
12. The Cuban Armed Forces probably are in a relatively
high State of preparedness and, short of a major US invasion,
could successfully defend the country against external
attack. They have already proven their capability to
maintain internal order. Joint military training exercises,
including elements of the grad, sea, and air forces,
have been conducted and some units have had practical
experience in operations against raids from abroad by Cuban
exiles. Although there have been unconfirmed reports of
poor morale, there is no reason to doubt that the majority
of the regular troops are loyal to the regime. Their
principal drawback is a lack of combat experience and the
low level of education of the enlisted men.
