Study the map of Soviet missile capabilities.

A map of Soviet Missile Capabilities in Cuba in 1962. The United States and Cuba are labeled. There are three rings on the map that circle the U S and Cuba. The outside ring is labeled 2,200 nautical miles. The middle ring is labeled 1,020 nautical miles. The inner ring is labeled 630 nautical miles.

Based on the map, why was the United States so worried about the USSR being involved with Cuba?

Many countries were in range of missiles from Cuba.
Missiles from Cuba could strike many parts of the US.
The USSR had not been involved in this part of the world before.
The USSR’s missiles could travel only a short distance before crashing.
