The AI doesn't know the real worth of a ship in the current environment. Yeah, I don't get much for defenders in the battleship era but the AI will pay me for a ship that is actually detrimental (upkeep costs).

If you have enough power you can really cripple the AI's without attacking them. Find two empires at war--sell both of them some of your older ships. The ships will get blown up fighting each other, you get a nice per-turn income. Sell enough and you drive them way into the hole.

When an AI comes to you for help when they are dying, sell them anything other than tech that you can on long-term deals. Once I sold them enough battleships that they spooked their enemy into making peace, but they never worked their way out of the hole they got in. I was making about 3000/turn off them for a long time.
