-A '''Starship Type''' is a description of the purpose of a Starship. This should not be confused with [[Starship Class]], which is a particular design. Each design is usually assigned to a particular type of starship, and each type will usually have many different classes.
+{{Disambig}}
-Sometimes a starship will move from one type to another. For example a [[Heavy Cruiser]] is a front-line warship, however as they age, and technology advances, a class may be no longer fit for the front-line, and moved to a more secondary role such as [[Frontier Cruiser]]. Sometimes the same design with different armaments will be of a different type (e.g. [[Strike Cruiser]] vs [[Cruiser]])
