Missile; pointer (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

arrow

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'missile' is the first definition.
(arrow is a kind of missile)

'pointer' is the second definition.
(I know that pointer can be written as arrow)

(Other definitions for arrow that I've seen before include "Something pointing" , "pointer to the way forward" , "Archery projectile" , "Missile, bolt" , "Move swiftly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
