True, but our current space loot system is a bigger code snafu than anything even Microsoft could put out ... as a Beta! I've lotted Tech 8 items from Tier 1 ships, and downed scores of Tier 3 and 4 ships while finding nothing better than Tech 2 items for my efforts.
Needless to say, when it comes to making money, I just go out and slaughter hordes of Tier 1 ships, now. Sure, their credit drop is less but the salvage is better - if you're flying a Tier 3 or better ship, then a Tier 1 usually dies in one shot, letting you rack up far more kills in less time and thus generating many times more loot drops. At 1,000cr x Tech Level x # of items, you can see how you can actually make more money overall by preying on larger hordes of weaker ships. I've found the "Commerce Raiders" over Tatooine in their measly Tier 1 Z95 Hunterhunters good for this, because they respawn literally as fast as you can kill them.

I looted mine the second day they were in live. The tier 4 spawn at Red Sin Chimera in Endor sector droped it. I've intigrated it into my BH armor

I found a Grand Mayoral Robe as a spaceship loot drop, once.
Imagine my shock.
"Oh crap, I killed the Mayor!!!"
