Blitz
Kill all the trigger ships and then take out the Chief Infantry. Note that you'll probably need to take out at least some of the other ships if you want your tank to last for more than a few seconds.

Mineable Asteroids
Considerable amount of ores: Pyroxeres, Plagioclase, Veldspar (All trigger a smartbomb when mined)
If you decide to mine, you get the warning "Someone triggered a hidden trap placed on one of the asteroids here. The trap causes a powerful Smartbomb to go off, damaging many ships in the vicinity". This happens every time a laser cycle finishes and ore is taken from any asteroid. The damage does not affect NPCs.
The average hit caused from the Smartbomb varies, 280 - 450 at a distance of 17km from the beacon. The frequency is random. The Smartbomb is centered on the Beacon which cannot be destroyed.
See comments section how this can actually be useful.

Structures
Starbase Ship-Maintenance Array drops a lot of trade goods.
