It has been my experience that every once in a while, you get lucky.
This has happened to me several times. I learned that if a ship is between 3500-4000 meters, if I plan it good, I might can put a shell ot two into the engine section. If I can hit, this sometimes causes them to zig-zag which will naturally cause a decrese in speed.
If not, I just radio a contact report and head on out.
