The four Russian vessels sailed to Cuba after conducting "high-precision missile weapons" training in the Atlantic Ocean.
A Russian navy frigate and a nuclear-powered submarine churned into Havana harbour on Wednesday for a stopover.
The US and Cuba have both said the visit posed no threat but it's widely seen as a Russian show of force as tensions rise over the Ukraine war.
Cuba – a long-time ally of Russia – saluted the ships' arrival with cannon fire from the harbour, while Russian diplomats waved small Russian flags and took selfies as the vessels passed the harbour's historic fortresses.
The frigate and submarine were accompanied by a tugboat and fuel ship that arrived earlier in the morning.
