In starship classification, cruisers were a type of starship that served as the primary combat vessels in a fleet.
The type was sometimes subdivided into star cruiser, space cruiser, heavy cruisers, light cruisers, patrol cruisers, combat cruisers, attack cruisers, and battle cruisers.
In the 2260s of the alternate reality, information on Starfleet operated cruisers was located in the Federation database. (Star Trek Beyond)
Cruisers were mentioned in a list of Starfleet vessel types, which appeared to the left of the personnel file for Balthazar Edison. [1]
While discussing his service history with Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Captain Montgomery Scott noted that in his lifetime he had "served aboard eleven ships," including "freighters, cruisers, [and] starships." (TNG: "Relics")
