The Standard Nosecone is a size 0 cap that typically fits to the front of a NCS Adapter.

Usage

With KSP's current drag model, nosecones only add to a craft's mass and drag, hindering its performance. This nosecone has a lower coefficient of drag than most parts, which may improve craft stability in a few situations.

Description

An aerodynamic nose cap.
