A high velocity aerodynamic projectile having a central body with a forward end, a rearward end and a longitudinal axis, the forward end of the body has a pedestal coaxially extending outward from the body. The projectile has aft stabilizing fins or a flare rigidly affixed at its rearward end and a forward stablizing means pivotably attached to the pedestal of the central body. The forward stabilizing means consists of a self-aligning projectile nose having its rearward end separated from the forward end of the projectile\s central body so as to allow the self-aligning projectile nose to pivot and align with the oncoming air stream.

A high velocity aerodynamic projectile subject to a displacing aerodynamic force during flight comprising: a solid central body having a forward end, a rearward end and a longitudinal axis, said forward end having a single arm pedestal rigidly attached, said pedestal coaxial with said longitudinal axis and extending outward from said solid central body, said pedestal having a spherical bearing affixed at its outward end; an aft stabilizing means rigidly affixed at the rearward end of said solid central body; a forward stabilizing means pivotably attached to said spherical bearing of said pedestal of said solid central body, said pedestal extending into the interior of said forward stabilizing means; said forward stabilizing means comprising a hollow self-aligning projectile nose having a tapering forward nose section in balance about said spherical bearing with a tapering aft nose section and a rearward end separated a distance between 0.005″to 0.010″from said forward end of said solid central body so as to allow said hollow self-aligning projectile nose to pivot and thereby reduce said displacing aerodynamic force.
