Used in canon:

   tlhIngan may'Duj, qItI'nga'
   Klingon Battle Cruiser, K'Tinga Class (S15 title)

   wa'DIch tlhIngan Dujmey luleghlu'pu'bogh rur qItI'nga' Duj.
   tera' vatlh DIS poH cha'maH wej HochHom lo'lu'taH
   Similar in configuration to the first Klingon vessels encountered,
   the K'Tinga-class remained in use for most of the 23rd century. (S15)

   tera' vatlh DIS poH cha'maH loS bong QongmeH qItI'nga' Duj
   tI'ang ghompu' DIvI' 'ejDo' 'entepray'
   A sleeper ship of this [K'Tinga] class, the T'Ong, was encountered
   in the 24th century by the USS Enterprise. (S15)

N.B. This was originally FASA's *K'ti'nga* class battlecruiser.  IIRC the 
three Klingon battlecruisers destroyed by V'Ger at the beginning of "ST: 
The Motion Picture" were K'Tingas.
