They did have an episode where a team in place used a laser 
designator to allow a missile fired from the SGC Gate Room to 
home in and destroy defenses around a gate.

The problem with all the ideas so far seems to be target 
acquisition, though.  Everything requires a MALP or something
to provide terminal guidance. Tomahawks or other long range
weapons probably wouldn't work.  (No GPS, no digital terrain 
maps, etc.) 

All that being said, I've never understood why they've never
put some sort of turret on a MALP, so teams offworld do have 
access to some sort of anti-aircraft firepower... (I think
somebody already mentioned putting Stingers on a MALP, for
example.)
