First off, is GURPS Spaceships good for this? I figured it would mostly lean towards realism in terms of combat, and I'm guessing the cheapest space ships costing outrageous sums? Is GURPS Spaceships worth a buy for this kind of setting?

I would say "Yes", but then I like a nice clean design system. As for prices, yes they tend to be expensive. However, there's absolutely nothing stopping you from simply knocking all the prices down by a factor of ten (for example) to make them fit your setting.
