| − | The '''Aerodynamic Nose Cone''' is a cap that fits to the front of an aircraft or rocket.

| |
| − | == Usage ==
| |
| − | This nosecone has a lower drag coefficient than most parts, potentially making rockets more stable. With KSP's new [[drag| drag model]], nosecones improve the drag of a rocket stack. For example, launching a lone RT-10 rocket booster with and without a nose cone results in a respective max altitude of 10500 m and 8100 m, demonstrating a significant improvement with the nose cone.
