The newer craft was the very first vessel to deploy a Regulus II sea-to-surface missile. Unfortunately, the weapons program was canceled not long after her launch. Nonetheless, she still had four Regulus I missiles in her arsenal. This meant that she had the ability to hit targets on land. And in February 1959, she had been stationed at Pearl Harbor.

Two of these were found towards the stern, while the other six were at the bow.
