“The Navy’s newest destroyer may fire a not-yet-to-be fielded Conventional Prompt Strike conventionally-armed missile...”

Taking apart this sentence, the qualifier “may” disqualifies everything else that follows. And to add to the fluff factor of the article, the missile “yet to be fielded” means it is not yet out of testing and perhaps doesn’t even exist.
