Their systems are fried and their engines dead. If you're lucky you may be able to recover some equipment or cargo left intact.

Yeah, just shoot them once and they'll drop any cargo and guns they may be carrying. Occasionally you can actualy blow one of them up, in which case it might drop some more loot, but I've only seen this happen once or twice.

Yeah, they're only good for getting some guns or cargo. You can't tow them in to the local shipyard for repairs or anything

If they're empty, then tough luck. Some of the ships, particularly in "Graveyards" are empty, and don't reward you for shooting them.
