I don't remember sidewinder missiles ever coming up in Star Wars

Concussion missiles, weapons which come up a decent amount in old EU works.

Supposedly in Return Of The Jedi the Falcon fired a pair of concussion missiles at the Death Star II reactor. The visual effect has the weapons coming from in between the prongs like where they are drawn in the cutaway, although the sound effect sounds very much like a turbo laser.
