Strange Terms

I remember there used to a term, "missile."

It meant anything you sent on its way to, hopefully, hit a target.

Now we have some specific, and strange to me variations on it.

Suicide drone.  We called this a guided missile or a cruise missile in my day.

One way cruise missile.  Were there, ever, round trip cruise missiles?
