One thing that makes me wonder now that you guys mention 'missile'.
You do know that most missiles use solid propellant right?
And that propellant gets used up in the first few seconds of flight. At least with AA missiles. The missile uses its kinetic energy for the remainder.
For a missile to still sound like its engine is stll roaring its got to be fired from pretty close to the target.
A US military vehicle firing a missile of whatever guidance towards the Pentagon would draw immediate attention to itself.
Also, there's only a few missiles big enough to be considered as large as the ones from peoples' accounts. The Phoenix is one, but is AA and moves at Mach 4, the others would be anti ship missiles and they require a sophisticated firing platform too.
