How do I use CFrame to rotate the mesh?

The script functions the link leads to a gif containing the problem. https://s2.gifyu.com/images/Kapture-2019-02-26-at-16.39.00.gif

NOTE: The projectile did not fire in the wrong direction, I simply slowed the projectile's speed so you could see the projectile mid air. The Mesh attached to the model is backwards. I cannot rotate it even though I used the CFrame.Angles function. While using the CFrame, the projectile fires in the correct direction, but the mesh remains facing facing the wrong direction. How do I use CFrame to rotate?

        local rocketClone = Rocket:Clone()
        --game.Debris:AddItem(rocketClone, 30)
        rocketClone.BrickColor = player.TeamColor
        rocketClone.Touched:connect(function(hit)
            if hit and hit.Parent and hit.Parent ~= player.Character and hit.Parent ~= tool then
                rocketClone:Destroy()
            end
        end)

        spawn(function()
            wait(30)
            if rocketClone then rocketClone:Destroy() end
        end)        

        -- Position the rocket clone and launch!
        local spawnPosition = (tool.Handle.CFrame * CFrame.new(2, 0, 0)).p
        rocketClone.CFrame = CFrame.new(spawnPosition, target)* CFrame.Angles(0 ,0 ,0) --NOTE: This must be done before assigning Parent
        rocketClone.Velocity = rocketClone.CFrame.lookVector * ROCKET_SPEED --NOTE: This should be done before assigning Parent
        rocketClone.Parent = game.Workspace     

        -- Attach creator tags to the rocket early on
        local creatorTag = Instance.new('ObjectValue', rocketClone)
        creatorTag.Value = player
        creatorTag.Name = 'creator' --NOTE: Must be called 'creator' for website stats
        local iconTag = Instance.new('StringValue', creatorTag)
        iconTag.Value = tool.TextureId
        iconTag.Name = 'icon'

        delay(attackCooldown, function()
            canFire = true
        end)
    end
end)
