One of the F-16's attacking Murphy fires an AIM-9L Sidewinder (short range air-to-air) missile at Blue Thunder from a distance barely two miles away. The AIM-9 travels at Mach 2.5, and from that distance the missile would have taken about four seconds to reach Murphy, yet Murphy has nearly fifteen seconds to avert the missile. From so close he would have had no chance to maneuver in front of the building in his attempt to fool the heat-seeking missile, let alone escape obliteration.
