Many years ago, probably 90s, I was Foulness on another matter but snapped this and have no idea what it is.

I have had it suggested that it is a bomb onto which small wings (and possibly a rear end) have been grafted for a prank.

It’s a P15 Termit aka Styx or Silkworm depending on country of origin.
Anti ship missile
It was one of these that HMS Gloucester took down with a Sea Dart when it was only a short distance away from slamming into USS Missouri. The only ever confirmed missile against missile kill under real combat conditions.
Thank you very much, that’s very interesting.

Mocked up Russian ALCM/ anti-shipping missile of some species?
