Yes, I was thinking this as about the only case for a major capital warship to be found alone, other than during basing transfers.
The number of variables that come with this are too great, including ability to resist planetary gravity during crash-landing.
Then there is hull integrity. Landing in water (ideal) would cause flooding, and I'm not sure bulkheads built for atmospheric containment would serve equally well against water, and for how long.
Cheers

I could see a Tigress jumping out of a battle with heavy damage,
misjumping 36 parsec from the planned RV point, and being presumed
destroyed rather than "lost"
If they were jumping while keeping the Black Globe up, it might be
hard to tell the difference between Jump Flash and the nuclear
missiles going off near the globe.
