The shell, usually. term derives from Artillery use, as does Angle of attack, etc. Of course there are rocket assisted shells- fired from cannon, but that is different. sometimes the term airframe is used with non-combatant rockets. Fuselage is not used with Rockets, except for Rocket Planes such as the famed X-l5.
