Take out the turrets and salvage become a lot more fun.

Sold-out has it on their £5 range, so I think I'll buy it along with Homeworld 2 and play them through together.
I liked on the demo of Homeworld 2 how you could target and destroy individual ship sub-systems such as fighter bays and weapon arrays, or go for the engines and leave enemy ships dead in the water before finishing them off with a few fighters. Very fun.
Needless to say, I had fewer frigates by the end, but many more destroyers and heavy cruisers...
Trouble is, your little 'Salvage' Drones always were a target as soon as they moved.
I nabbed a Heavy Cruiser once.
I laughed a lot.
