It takes a hell of a lot more than a single clock cycle to run a targeting algorithm.

Yep, around 200. The Missile meanwhile travels 0,2mm

Source? I'd estimate thousands to millions of cycles.

Written in hand coded assembler language: Maybe 100 cycles. Actually Quake from 1997 used a very similar prediction for network coding and not joking, it took less than 60 cycles and the very same code has been used to guide the IRIS-T system - which by the way uses an 1.4Ghz ARM Quadcore.
