In 2268, the  was attacked unsuccessfully with an interplanetary thermonuclear missile. This Ekosian missile was launched from the surface of the planet Ekos. During the same year, the Enterprise came under attack from the asteroid-ship Yonada, which launched a spread of six archaic chemically-fueled missiles at the Enterprise. In both cases the primitive sublight missiles were easily destroyed with phasers. ()

The Ferengi  marauders of the 24th century were equipped with at least two forward missile launchers. DaiMon Goss's Ferengi marauder fired a missile at the Barzan wormhole, not taking into account that the weapon would have no effect whatsoever on the wormhole. ()

In 2373, the Maquis who had survived the assault on them by the Dominion, including Rebecca Sullivan, faked a supposed missile launch against Cardassia to let Michael Eddington know they were safe on Athos IV. Benjamin Sisko and Martok took this very seriously, as they knew the Dominion would start a war if the weapons hit Cardassian targets. There were also fears they were using the cloaking devices the Klingons had given to the Maquis. Sisko enlisted Eddington's help in disarming the supposed missiles and the former Maquis leader accompanied him to Athos IV, where Sisko discovered the truth. ()

In 2387, the Romulan mining vessel Narada was armed with advanced missiles that separated into numerous smaller projectiles when approaching a target. These weapons were used to deadly effect during the Naradas incursion into the alternate reality, most notably during the destruction of Vulcan. ()
