Induced Drag
Vortex center
Aft vortex
A unsymmetrical fin / wing in an airflow will have excess pressure on the face with least surface (often on the side facing down) and low pressure on the opposite face with largest surface. The pressure difference is the lift.

Active Stability
Naturally dynamic unstable, but maintained stable due to an automatic attitude system. Trajectory and stability canbe maintained by moving servo controlled fins or by use of side thrusters. A thrust vectoring system (TVC) can also be used. A TVC system is a device that can change the thrust vector by changing the orientation ofthe nozzle or by deflecting the plume.
