Explanation:

The Missile Crisis of Cuba is what is called the conflict between the United States, the Soviet Union and Cuba in October 1962, generated by the discovery by the United States of bases of Soviet medium-range nuclear missiles in Cuban territory .

It was one of the biggest crises, together with the Berlin Blockade, the Able Archer 83 exercises and the downing of Flight 007 of Korean Air, between both powers during the Cold War and in Cuba, where nuclear war was closest . In fact, only twice in history has a defensive condition (DEFCON) level 2 been reached in the United States.

The crisis covers the period between the discovery of the R-12 and R-14 medium-range ballistic missiles of the Soviet Union (October 15, 1962) until the announcement of their dismantling and transfer back to the Soviet Union (28 October 1962). However, at other levels it extended until November 1962 and even January 1963 in successive mini-crises.
