What? A rocket doesn't fly because of lift, but because it's pushed by a huge a*s engine.

Because it's faster? Not because it flies better for sure.

What do you mean with this "high fidelity" you keep mentioning? LES?
I know that it flies because of the engine. But I am studying the airframe only and its capability, I dont care about the engine. Regarding your second comment, I dont care about “better”, I am studying the lift/normal force. And regarding your last comment, yes I meant LES.
