The Organisation Armée Secrète (OAS, "Secret Army Organisation") was a short-lived right-wing French paramilitary organization that carried out terrorist attacks against Algeria during the Algerian war of independence. It was founded by former French army officers and politicians in Francoist Spain without any support from the French government. Because of its broad nationalistic ideology, OAS had both former French resistance members and Vichy collaborators in its ranks.
Despite its nationalistic leanings, it conducted several terror attacks against the French Army bases in Algeria, most notable of which was the Battle of Bab el Oued, and even made several unsuccessful assassination attempts again French president Charles de Gaulle.
After the Algerian War the OAS began to lose steam as most of its members had been killed, captured or simply deserted. Most of its upper command was executed while some were reintegrated back into the army.

Expert's Opinion[]
While OAS' weapons granted more mobility, this was only one weapon factor, and the Cubans outclassed them in all ranges with most all other weapon factors.
