    The ship is only a tiny part of the DPS equation. I'd recommend the Vengance if your inclined for a 5/3 layout. The Paradox is also an awesome DPS Sci ship.

    From a raw DPS perspective either the Vengeance (Lobi Store/Exchange) or the Krenim Imperium Warship.

    I recommend a Kevlin Timeline Heavy Command Cruiser (T6). It's a constitution class.

    It all honestly depends on your playstyle, faction etc.
    What I recommend is looking through the statistics of the lockbox and lobi store ships, and find which one is best for your playstyle. It is pretty worthless spending tons of money on a ship only to find you have no idea how to properly handle it :)

    ...from that list I'd say the krenim warship.

    This is sound advice, it does depend greatly on play style.

    If you're looking into the large cruiser, BFAW 'Meta' Build, then it's going to be the Imperium Warship. 5 Tactical Consoles, 3 Science, 5 forward weapons, commander tactical and access to Intel for Override Sub System Safeties. Unless you go really thin on Engineering, you'll probably use the Lt. Universal for Engineering, but it still has a Lt. Commander Science so you if you choose to build a 'threat magnet' using Feedback Pulse and the trait from the Krenim Science Vessel, it can do that too.

    If you are looking for something faster or more agile for Cannons or DBB though, you'll probably want to look elseware. It definitely depends on your style, but if you're looking for a FAW heavy ship then the Imperium Warship is one of the top ships in STO.
