In starship classification, a warship or war vessel is a generic term for any armed starship designed for combat. These vessels include battleships, battle cruisers, various sized cruisers, escorts, and destroyers.
Captain Jonathan Archer once said that he didn't want to be in command of a warship in response to Captain Jefferies' desire to install powerful weapons on Enterprise (NX-01). (ENT: "Home")
The Federation Starfleet typically avoids using the warship classification, instead applying euphemisms such as "escort" and "tactical cruiser" for the Template:ShipClass and Prometheus-class, respectively.
The Klingon Negh'Var warship and Jem'Hadar battle cruiser were referred to as warships by Starfleet. A small 23rd century Klingon vessel in 2267 was given the sole classification of warship by Starfleet. (VOY: "Drone"; TOS: "Friday's Child")
The Douwd who assumed the form of Kevin Uxbridge created a warship in order to drive the USS Enterprise-D away from Delta Rana IV. (TNG: "The Survivors")
The warship Voyager was part of The Voyager Encounter holographic simulation in the Kyrian Museum of Heritage. (VOY: "Living Witness")

Background
Ronald D. Moore commented: "This also is a legacy of Gene's. He felt very strongly that the Federation would not build warships per se, but rather a fleet of scientific exploration vessels with weapons designed for defense rather than offense. It was quite a fight just to get the Defiant designated as a pure warship around here, much less trying to go for an entire fleet of ships like it." [1]
