Slitheen craft (Aliens of London)

A Slitheen craft was used by the Passameer-Day Slitheen. It had faster-than-light travel capability in the form of a slipstream engine.

History
It was the ship that crashed into Big Ben and the River Thames in Central London on 6 March 2006, (TV: Aliens of London) the Slitheen using the crash as a diversion for their bigger plans, namely, their attempt to destroy Earth. Blon Fel-Fotch Passameer-Day Slitheen claimed that it wasn't crashed, but parked "barely two minutes away" from 10 Downing Street for the Slitheen to escape to when World War III started. (TV: World War Three) To further the hoax of an alien invasion, the Slitheen genetically modified a pig into a biped and placed it aboard the craft as its "pilot". (TV: Aliens of London)

The crash of the craft and its pig slave pilot was dicussed in an operations board by various UNIT officers. According to this account, the crash took place on 28 June 2006, and Corporal J Frinkstein and his men investigated the ship, and he took photographs of the interior of the craft and the pig slave. However, both Frinkstein and Lieutenant David Judd agreed there was nothing of use to be understood from the craft. (PROSE: Operation London)

Later that day, after the Ninth Doctor and Rose Tyler were taken to 10 Downing Street, Mickey Smith (TV: Aliens of London) wrote on his website about the crash, ecstatic that it would finally prove his and Clive's suspicions about the Doctor true, and would force the government to respond to the existence of aliens. He was also sent a drawing of the ship by tonka_boy and a picture and a drawing of its pig-like pilot by squidbaby23. (PROSE: Alien landing confirmed)
