Warship

While merchant ships carry cargo, warships are dedicated combat ships, carrying powerful weapons, thick armor and being faster and more maneuverable than a merchant ship. Warships are usually exclusively operated by a Navy, though some organizations and companies have operated their own.
Most, if not all, factions operate their own fleets of warships. Some ships tend to be smaller than their larger counterparts, utilizing weaponry significantly less advanced than the larger's technology, though making excellent use of coordination and tactical thinking.
Some other ships are large, and though heavily armed and protected by energy shields, often carry large quantities of ground troops. 
The term warship encompasses several terms:
*Light capital warship
*Capital ship
