The explosions that are created when weapons fire hits another ship seems to be dropped my framerate to an unplayable level. Phasers seem to cause the biggest problem. I seems to be related to the rendering of the texture but i have no idea. After the explosion ends, the framerate increases again, but during the period where my ship is doing actual damage to another, the framerate just drops trememdously. Any ideas?

Does this happen with any number of ships or is it worse with only certain specific ships? Looks like you have a sufficiently powerful enough system but certain mods can really slow down a system during battle.

If you have a lot of ships doing battle then the asnwer is that you should experiment with systematically reducing the number of ships/objects in your scene and see if that improves the framerate.
