A Vulcan shuttle disembarking from Enterprise
The Vulcan shuttle was a type of shuttlecraft or transport used by the Vulcans in the early 2150s. They were about two decks high, and had a warp-ring drive, similar to most Vulcan combat cruisers of the time.
At least one was assigned to Suurok-class starships. (ENT: "Fallen Hero") This type of shuttle was also used as ground-based transportation on Vulcan. (ENT: "Awakening")

Background information[]
The CGI model of the Vulcan shuttle was designed by John Eaves. [1]
The Vulcan shuttle wasn't referred to in the final draft script of "Fallen Hero", in which the Sh'Raan itself was instead described as docking with Enterprise.
An early script for the episode "Extinction" called for another style of 22nd century Vulcan shuttle, and although Eaves produced several sketches of the class, it was written out of the episode by the time of filming. [2]
