Tested around a bit. Only happens when it's placed by a bot. I have the suspicion that the ghost entity and the entity the bot are carrying have some kind of mismatch that causes the crash.

Here some screenshots. In inventory it's a Base Mod > Space Age rocket silo, once placed though (manually) it becomes a QualityRockets rocket silo.
Picking it back up, it becomes a Base Mod > Space Age silo again, and even the picked-back-up silo will crash the game if it's placed by a bot.
A bot can deconstruct the manually placed silo, though, also converting it back into a Base Mod > Space Age silo again.
