Could the D'kyr be the Maymura-class that Archer mentioned in "Breaking the Ice"? IIRC he said something to the effect that he'd been on an older ship of that type, during his "friendly dinnertime chat" with Captain Vanik.

I just noticed something from Harry's screencaps -- I was too busy admiring the new model when I saw the episode -- The NX-01 is docked on the RING! I guess that nixes the idea of the entire ring being the Vulcan equivalent of a warp nacelle?

It isn't docked directly to the ring. It's docked to the supporting structure that holds the ring. Not that much more different than say the torpedobay-docking bays on the 1701 refit.

That's Maymora-class. A possibility, to be sure.

And Guardian, you probably didn't find the name on Google because it's actually spelled Vahklas. [Smile]

Two larger pics of the ships can be seen on my page thanks to Trekconnection

From Starship Freak's site:
Mayomar-class

Once again, that's Maymora-class. I really wish we could eliminate all these widely-spread yet erroneous spellings of the Vulcan ship names.

For the sake of clarity and correctness:
  • The Surak-class Ti'Mur and Ni'Var[/i] were seen in "Breaking the Ice" and "Shadows of P'Jem," respectively. The closed-captioning for the former indicated class as being "Suurok-class," but all subsequent references have been Surak.
  • The Maymora-class Yarahla was mentioned in "Breaking the Ice."
  • The Vahklas was featured in "Fusion."
  • The combat cruiser Sh'Raan was seen in "Fallen Hero."
  • The newest addition to the list, the D'Kyr, was seen at the end of "Shockwave."

It's also possible that we'll be seeing a 20th century Vulcan ship, the one which crashes in Carbon Creek in the 1950's.

According to the last week's issue of the Fact Files, that ship is Sukar class.

Sukar Class? I hope that's a typo... because that's just "Surak" with the 'r' and 'k' reversed! [Wink]

That's what I was thinking, especially considering how often that happens in the Fact Files. [Smile]

Except that the Sh'Raan isn't Surak-class, is it? I thought it was a larger (though similarly shaped) vessel?

^ No, it's not, but it doesn't take a lot to get the Fact Files writers mixed up, especially since Vulcan ship designs look quite similar. The class was only mentioned once in the epsiode guide for "Fallen Hero", here's what it said;

quote:
"15. The Vulcan captain of the SH'RAAN appears onscreen in sickbay. He is offering ENTERPRISE the support of his SUKAR-class vessel's arsenal."

Eden FX has posted pics, and one of them is a rather nice shot of the D'Kyr

The upload version doesn't appear to work.

The image (along with many other neat ones) can be found if you dig around in here, though:

Funny, it works fine for me [Confused] Ah, well, another link doesn�t hurt.
