Spaceship part destroyed!

[Yxklyx]

So I had an already existing spaceship part (Engine) destroyed by a spy. How do I protect against this? One or more spies in the Capital? Is the spaceship considered to be in the Capital?

Either place 1 spy or 1 Security beareau, cause they can catch rival spies, but the bonuses don't stack. If you're going for space, crank up the EP slider and get counter-espionage spies out.

Check out this thread for a discussion of sabotage of existing spaceship parts and how to prevent it.

That's where it's launched, not necessarily built. To prevent parts being sabotaged you need to protect the actual city that's building the parts.

But this is an already built part that was destroyed. The link just given implies that your SS Engine can be destroyed from ANY one of your cities, which means you need a spy/bureau in ALL cities.

it doesn't really work when the AI sent in a dozen spy, you will get a 2 or 3 but eventually one of them will get through and damage the space ship part.

That's correct, however for the AI it's pretty predictable typically.

Closing borders, bureau, counter espionage, and more EP generated will all make this mission harder on/costly to the AI trying to pull it off.
