Some rockets, mainly (only?) ICBMs have Aerospike nosecones
Why are they preferred in lieu of traditional nose cones?

You'll notice it is used on submarine launched ICBMs.
Blunt noses are very efficient for the missile to get our of water (and are shorter than long, profiled ones, which helps with submarine diameter),but aren't great in atmosphere, ence the deployable aerospike to make then efficient in both medium.
