I was under the impression that the standard issue AGM-65 and later models
would be of the type that would be a "fire and forget" missile and that it
would lock onto its target, and then continue barring any unforseen mishap
of the guidance system due to radio interference, or microwave bombardment,
as per Defensive measures required to "save ones A**". I am not an expert,
mind you, but a curious individual trying to understand that which I am not
well versed in. 

Care to assist me?
