Default Space Plane on the Enterprise intro

Does anyone know what the name of the hypersonic space plane Star Trek Enterprise seasons shown in the intro for about six seconds

starting at about the 0:95 second mark? It shows the space plane in orbit undocking from a space station and

descending toward Earth. Below is a pic of it.
I'd like to build a model of it but I can't find any info on it. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Default Re: Space Plane on the Enterprise intro

It's completely fictional, probably whipped up just for that purpose. It's a lifting-body design, though, similar to:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HL-20_P..._Launch_System
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_Space_Plane
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-38_Crew_Return_Vehicle

The show's creators probably did some reading and figured a lifting body spaceplane would come along in the future.
