The Warlock-class destroyer is an advanced Earth Alliance capital warship in Babylon 5. It is notable for being the first class of Earth starship with artificial gravity. The EAS Titans is a notable ship of the Warlock-class.

Little is known about these ships from the B5 series. They were introduced after the Shadow War, and their only appearance on screen was a glimpse in The Lost Tales. They appear to have the same dual beam weapons featured on Omega-class destroyers, as well as a hangar for fighters and additional pulse weapons and interceptors. The addition of artificial gravity likely allows them to accelerate harder and remain deployed longer than earlier classes of EarthForce warship.
