74. (Continued) i ®OP_SRERET™ 0, 21 Oct 62 X. 2,200-n.m,. Missile: A. These sites are located at Guanajay, just west of Havana. They are fixed sites, and we have identified the eight launching pads normally | associated with similar sites in the USSR. We have not yet seen the missiles. B. These sites are still in fairly early stage of | construction which we do not expect to be con- pleted until some time in December. C. We know less about the 2,200-mile missile, but believe it to be also single-stage, using storable liquid fuels and with an autonomous guidance system. We estimate CEP at 1 1/2 nautical miles. Warhead will probably yield 3-5 megatons,. D. There is new evidence of the beginning of con- struction of what may be a new fixed four-pad MRBM or IRBM missile site at Remedias, East of Havana. XI. We have no direct evidence that nuclear weapons are now in Cuba -- and we are not likely to get any. A. However, we are pretty sure that a facility being constructed near the IRBM site at Guanajay is a nuclear storage facility. -10- OP-SECRET 257
