It is an object of the present invention to provide a flying object using a thin elongated nose cone with a small tip angle for reducing the air resistance during flying, wherein the maximum loading capacity can be increased without decreasing the volume efficiency of the flying object by limitations placed on the accommodation space, regardless of the structure thereof. In the flying object in accordance with the present invention, which comprises a nose cone in the tip portion, the nose cone portion has a compressed structure in the axial direction during accommodation and expands on the tip side in the axial direction during flying, due to an expandable nose cone structure such that a disk with a small diameter is disposed in the forward position and the disks with a successively increasing diameter are disposed in the axial direction. After separation, the nose cone expands in the axial direction, deep cavities are formed between the disks, and a fine elongated nose cone with a small tip angle is provided, whereby the air resistance is reduced.
