The V-1s and V-2s were terror weapons, and of no use strategically, even tactically, because the guidance systems were all but useless.

Many Spitfire pilots engaged in the game of "tipping" over the V-1s. They would intercept, then pace the rockets, then get their wingtips under the V-1s wing, and raisng their own wing, tip the V-1 over and cause it to dive into the ground, or the Channel.

Your post doesn't make it quite clear but I assume that you know that no direct physical contact was involved. It was enough to disrupt the aerodynamics and thus cause the V-1s to lose control.
