Overall walk-around of one of the aft unit's air vane.

Picture 6 of 6.

The aft unit has four air vanes to help guide the payload to its target. At the base of each air vane is a pair of jet nozzles, which also assist in terminal guidance.

Note that, with the way the aft unit is situated in storage, it's not possible to perform a complete walk-around of any single air vane. This is a different vane than the previous photos in the walk-around.
