The flight time of a missile launched from Cuba to the U.S. mainland would depend on the type of missile used. For example, a short-range ballistic missile could take approximately 10 to 15 minutes to reach targets in Florida or other southeastern states. Longer-range missiles may take slightly more time, but the overall timeframe would still be relatively short, underscoring the urgency of missile defense systems.

Cuba in the Cold WarFollowing a revolution in 1959 Cuba adopted Communism, being the only state in the Americas to have a do so, or at least to have a Communist government that lasted. (In fact, it's still in office in 2006). An attempted invasion from the US ('Bay of Pigs' [and no it was not a bay full of floating pigs :^P]) was a fiasco and in 1962 Khrushchev tried to station long-range missiles on the island. This attempt led to the 'Cuban missile crisis' of 1962. When this began, the U.S. sent Fidel Castro a letter stating that the U.S. will remove their missiles from Turkey if Cuba remove theirs. Castro agreed to this and did so, marking an end to the Cuban Missile Crisis.
The Romans created the first ballista. It looked like a very large cross bow. It throws things a long way (relatively). A ballistic missile throws itself. An anti-ballistic missile throws itself at the incoming ballistic missile.

anywhere from 15-30 min.
A nuclear missile launched from Cuba could reach Saginaw, Michigan, in approximately 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the specific type of missile and its trajectory. The distance from Cuba to Saginaw is about 1,100 miles, and modern intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) travel at speeds exceeding 3,000 miles per hour. Therefore, the time frame for such a missile to cover that distance would be relatively short.
Krushchev the Russian leader at the time put long-range missiles in Cuba, which sparked the Cuban Missile Crisis.
In April 2009, they shot "TD-2" ICBM (inter-continental ballistic missile). Since then they have a new long range missile shot in January of 2010.
Sputnik 1 was launched on the 4th of October, 1957. The booster used by it had been used in August of that year to launch a long range missile.
It is not possible to drive from Miami to Cuba.
A missile is a self-propelled weapon designed to be launched at a target. It typically carries an explosive payload and is guided by a system that directs it to its intended destination. Missiles are used in military applications for purposes such as defense, offense, and strategic deterrence.
Yes but it would be only a short range missile. Long range supersonic cruse missile would be very difficult to make because the equipment for required power and fast navigation processing make it vary large. Supersonic cruse missile would also have the limitation not to fly atlow altitude.
you suck you smell, why would you ask such a stupid question!?
Tamahawk® Cruise Land Attack Missile (TLAM) is an all-weather, long range, subsonic cruise missile used for land attack warfare, launched from U. S. Navy surface ships and U.S. Navy and Royal Navy submarines. It is capable of carrying both conventional and nuclear warheads.
