You actually need a small craft for the mission "the vault". You do get a type 8 for that, but it's not as good as a runabout, the Delta-Flyer or the Captain's Yacht and all that others you can pay for.
Other than that, in pre-f2p STO you could do daily shuttlecraft-missions to get the schematics for the Delta-Flyer to craft it. In my Type 8 these missions were a pain in the a**, because these missions require you to scan things with your shuttle to collect some specific data-packs and before I decided to only scan anomalies in clusters, I often got into missions with battles which I never survived in that thing.
That's how I got my DF, it's one of the last ones if not the last one made on Memory Alpha (because you could do these mission only once all 20 hours I got finished just hours before the big update that changed all those freebees into paystuff) lol
edit:
I forgot to mention you always can switch between your current ship and any small craft you have by going to your ship-interior and talking to someone in your transporter-room.
