vertical tail
A vertical tail is an upright, stabilizing structure located at the rear of an aircraft or fish. In aviation, it's primarily used to maintain the aircraft's yaw equilibrium and stability, often housing the rudder, which controls the aircraft's yaw movement. Essentially, it helps the aircraft maintain a steady and balanced direction during flight.
