Yes - the same sort of consideration takes place in Proportions, with ships that have armored structure. They can take a pounding and still be mostly functional, usually, but one lucky hit can take out the bridge. With Aux Con, it would require two lucky hits. On a major expensive combat ship, Aux Con may be worthwhile.
