In 2379, Captain Typhuss James Kira used shuttlecraft Archer to disable the deflector dish of a Puddle Jumper, with Miranda Tate and Gul Aman Evek aboard.

In 2385, Typhuss used shuttlecraft Archer to visit Kira Nerys and his kids on Bajor. Typhuss later used shuttlecraft Archer to return to the Intrepid but was attacked by a single Xindi-Insectoid Olaen class vessel and Typhuss was able to disable the shields on the Xindi ship after the battle the shuttle was forced to crash land on an M-class planet. Later Captain Kira was rescued by the USS Enterprise-E and shuttlecraft Archer was beamed aboard. (Star Trek: The New Generation episode: "Enemies")
