The Arizona Class are the oldest battlecruisers still in service with Earth Fleet, originally built as a class of twelve in the late 2100's.  Although equiped with a heavy armament of Lance Torpedo launch tubes, heavy Grav Lasers, and six squadrons of starfighters, they lack a gravity drive.  They're also capable of landing a battalion of Tech Infantry marines on a planetary surface using a fifty-trooper Transit Beacon and a dozen Assault Pinnaces.

Scheduled to be scrapped after the Third Civil War, shortages of new construction have kept the last few in service long past their prime.
