Navy missile (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tomahawk

(Other definitions for tomahawk that I've seen before include "North American Indian hatchet" , "Native American weapon" , "US native axe" , "its strike can be fatal" , "intended to make a kill" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
