"Doodlebug" was one nickname for the German V-1 bomb, more often called a "Buzz Bomb". There were primitive cruise missiles that flew until they ran out of fuel, then crashed and exploded on whatever was below. Precise aiming was impossible, but they could hit a target as large as London.

The term Buzz Bomb refers to the motive power sound, not the explosion sound. They were nose-fused a small two-bladed prop used slipstream energy to arm the fuses- and was only activated when the propulsion system was cut off- again to prevent accidental pre-detonations- always a hazard with bombs and bombers.
