The T'Pau (NSP-17938) was a Vulcan Mahl'kom group Apollo-class transport that was in service with the Vulcan National Merchant Fleet in the mid-24th century. T'Pau was named in honor of the Vulcan matriarch T'Pau.
- The premise for all my deck calculations: a deck is 2.5m + 0.5m for EPS cables, power cables, ... = 3m height for a deck.
- My calculations follow a purely mathematical approach. I do not compare bridge modules or disk heights with each other. I always pull in decks based on the rows of windows and then calculate a physically plausible room height.

The ship has 8 decks.
After calculating the decks, this results in a length of
184m.

The scheme in Eaglemoss magazine is not entirely correct. So I modified it. With the help of the auction photos of the Tosk ship (later modification of the T'Pau for Deep Space Nine) and the original profile drawing, I was able to reconstruct this type of ship.
The entire deflector area under the ship was missing. I also added the lower holder of the ring and the golden area at the lower front of the ship.

The ship was later destroyed by a Romulan warbird to prevent the crew of the USS Enterprise-D from taking custody of it and the Romulan troops aboard (TNG: "Unification II").
In this fly-by scene with a Romulan warbird you also get a good impression of how small the ship is.
