  • The Sidewinder is an air to air heat seeking missile specifically designed to fly up the tailpipe of a jet fighter's engine, then explode inside the engine completely destroying it. If the fighter has 2 engines, the shrapnel from the first often causes failure of the second also.

  • There are many surface to air antiaircraft missiles.
