No nation has have enough manpower to search such well placed shipping

every cargo ship on the planet.

Yeah, but without info on where it's getting launched from and where
it's supposed to go, the cruise missile is going to be completely lost
on exiting the launch tube.
Here's info on the missile itself:

I think the idea is to hide the missiles in one's own country so they
are difficult to eliminate at the beginning of hostilities, as well as
being able to move them from point-to-point inconspicuously.
You are still going to need to update the missile's guidance system once
you get it to where you are going to launch it from, as well as telling
it where its target is at.
In the video, it shows a door at the opposite end of the shipping
container from where the missiles are after they are elevated. That is
no doubt where you enter to update their guidance systems, and probably
where you launch them from also.
