As soon as target is locked, you could launch as many missiles as you want, all the stock if you wish ...
Flight sim aerial targets rarely require 2 Sparrows and further targets need redisignation.
OK if they are suicidaly, and rarely, in a nice neat formation.

In practise it is difficult enough to maintain the painting and lock on one target without enemy interference.
Hence the Sparrow has largely now given way to active or semi- active missiles.
