Oh god I hate NPC's with unlimited cargo hold!

[AeternusDoleo]

Heck no! D'ye think I hung around with -that- in my hold? Hightailed it to Beaumont an' found me a buyer! Gonna live out the rest o' me life sippin' pina coladas out on Curacao. Thanks for the break kid!

... funniness aside, dropping cargo to space is at your own risk. The junker CSVs have 500 cargo space available to them, so they can nick that armor if they're empty. Any NPC will try to pick up any floating cargo if they have space for it. Bats, bots, ammo, cargo, and yes, ship equipment.
