I wonder why the missles locked onto Anakin's fighter but failed to lock onto the gigantic cruiser?

They are probably programmed that way. — Aiddat ^{(Holonet) (Contribs Log)} 17:03, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

The missiles appear to be programmed to follow friendly starfighters with the idea that the friendly ship will lead them to valid targets, at which point they break off. ZeldaTheSwordsman 20:10, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
