Link Between VB-6 Felix and Sidewinder?

[Atomic Coyote]

Was there any direct link between the IR seeker used in the WW2 vintage VB-6 Felix, and the AIM-9 Sidewinder? I assume that the research on the earlier bomb was helpful and used at least indirectly, but I'm curious if you could draw a more direct line. Information on the VB-6 seems fairly sparse on the internet (and it doesn't look like it's gotten much discussion on this forum).
