And there is nothing stopping you form using both.

G...how does it eliminate the main costing ships? Can it auto-destruct?
I just mean that if you have a ship that's incapacitated and no space yard handy to repair or scrap it, you can end up paying a lot of maintenance while for a useless piece of scrap metal. If the ship has the SDD device on it you can give it orders to self destruct. The only time it does it automatically though is if a boarding ship tries to board it.
