Most of you, do not even know, nuclear bombs are also placed in special
torpedoes, of which it would not take more than two to take out Cuba !!!


I don't think the Mark45 has been deployed in decades. They were not very
practical, for even at maximum range and the boat pointed either directly
towards or directly away from the target there was a surprisingly large chance
that you would not survive the shock waves. Cruise missiles made them obsolete.

Please, don't even think that about Cuba. It is a beautiful country and I
am going boating there, in February, for my annual winter vaction!!!!
