Centaur is not a powerfull ship. An avarage M6, which means that 4 properly equipped M3s will change it into dust very quickly (very, very quickly if they will use rockets).
If you aim for building a trade empire (huge production and a net of your own trade stations) and commanding massive fleet (which would include wings of heavy centaurs on simple patrol duty), then this one M6 isn't much ;) It is the only such situation in the plots, you won't get anything bigger.
It's just the way this game works, there are slow ways (what you did with salvaging), quick ways (knowing what plots to do and what missions to look for) and feeling cheaty ways (people talk about stock exchange, about how to easy it is, so I'm not trading in it to not spoil the fun).
You don't need whole M1 of them, since they can use M6 class missiles... 10 of them loaded with Typhoons will be scary.
Yea, but this way of making millions is still slow ;)
EDIT: ...and it ruins relations with pirates :P
There is a mod that upgrades UTs - rewrites their behaviour to make them more efficient. So they trade efficiently. A 25lvl trader with this mod makes about 500k per hour (assuming 10rep with every nation). Which means that from 20 of them you get 10mil/h. A pocket money ;)
Another example, vanilla this time:
A reasonable energy loop costs about 100 milion.
With it, your mine doesn't have to buy anything.
It would give you 2-3 times more cash per hour with that.
Or you could add more factories, make 1mj shields and mosquitos.
LOTS of money, trust me.
