Hyperdrive capable doesn't do it. But I suppose "ship" implies the ability to maneuver. I was working with my memory and impression... which is of an orbital station. I suppose if it's a
ship... the kind of orbit you use can vary all you like.
Anyway... I still think humans finding a technological solution is less likely than a clever solution like boarding a supply shuttle and blowing it up from the inside.
