That much, they have in the game already. Use a light sloop to ram something? 150 damage in pve, 70 damage in svs. But only if you hit exactly mid-ship on the target SvS ship (otherwise scored as a complete miss.)
Use a war frigate to ram? 1,800 damage (maybe more now in svs.) Only have to come within 1/2 mile of where the light sloop is, for it to score as a hit.
I don't know anyone with rank 5 ramming speed. My light sloop has only 2200 hull, though. So a war frigate passing eight to ten boat lengths behind me, yes, will cause me to drop to very-low red level, or sink if I'd been hit by a stray cannonball first.
