I'm well aware of what the Division Cuba is. However, if you look back at the message I was replying to, HorseSoldier was talking about the number of Cuban troops, what they were, and where they were; he mentioned Angola.
My point was that the answer depends a lot on which timeline you use. In RL (and V2 timelines), the Cuban army (and its equipment) is mostly home in Cuba.
Spanish Main is not a V2 timeline, but that is easy enough to fix.
In a V1 timeline, there are other possibilities. Also, a continued war (and losses) means Cuban equipment destroyed in Angola would need to be replaced - by T-72s rather than T-62s, and possible a T-80s (or plans for T-80s, meaning some would be delivered to the Soviet training teams to start tatrining Cubans). On the other hand, disasterous losses would leave the Cubans unlikely to be willing to part with any equipment, since by the beginning of 1997, the Soviets aren't likely to have any to spare for a while (in any timeline).
