Strike-class medium cruisers normally carry a squadron of TIE fighters (12 craft) for space superiority and escort as well as two AT-STs and one AT-AT in addition to its troop complement.  These cruisers are actually modular in design and variants can be specialized as light carriers (two squadrons of TIE fighters, bombers, or interceptors), ground assault ships (5 AT-ATs, a walker platoon), or troop transports (up to an Army battalion).  Strike-class medium cruisers first came into service several years before the Battle of Yavin using much more modern technology than the Dreadnaught-class heavy cruisers and Carrack-class light cruisers; thus, the Strike actually has a stronger hull, better, shields, and heavier armament than a Dreadnaught despite technically being a smaller vessel.
