Harpoon missile

From TARDIS Index File, the free Doctor Who reference.

Harpoon missiles were destructive weapons invented by Humans in the 21st century and were only used by armed forces.

Mickey Smith hacked into the UNIT website and released a harpoon missile designated UGM-84A under the Doctor's orders. This missile hit 10 Downing Street and completely destroyed it, and the Slitheen inside, thwarting their plot to irradiate the Earth. (DW: World War Three)
