Missile & Rocket Configuration
The generic customization framework is put to use for rapid design evaluation of
missiles & rockets. Over a period of time, three different variants have been delivered.

Missile and Rocket configuration variant 1 (Spinning Missile)

Missile and Rocket configuration variant 2 (Free Rolling Tail)

Missile and Rocket configuration variant 3 (Control Surface Deflection)
The evolution of features through the variant deployment cycle is listed below:
