The Cuban Revolutionary Navy is the naval branch of the Cuban Revolutionary Armed Forces.
The Cuban Navy today operates its own domestically-developed missile systems, the Bandera (a copy of the dated Soviet Styx missiles) and Remulgadas anti-ship missile systems, as well as the nationally produced Frontera self-propelled coastal defence multiple rocket launcher. The navy's principal operations are countering drug smuggling and illegal immigration. The country's geographical position and limited naval presence has enabled traffickers to utilise Cuban territorial waters and airspace.
