As it stands right now, I don't think you can do that based on the cargo. You could assign it a generic boarding defense value, but it would defend even if the bay was empty.

BTW did you ever play GS3?

I think I disagree with this premise. Cargo, is not "combat ready", and thus, should not be able to mount a defense. Fighters, for example, as cargo, are packed for transport. If they were combat ready, they'd be in launch bays. I don't think that cargo should be capable of defense. Any weapons and equipment needed to do so would not be readily available.
