The reason for dumping something in the Sun is you hope that even if it isn't immediately destroyed that, seeing as the Sun is a big place, it will be lost.
What was dumped in the Sun was a hulk, the skeleton and internal structure with little shell or skin, and no powered bits.
But, in Fenspace there is probably at least one group that has an array of Solar observation satellites (who?) - you really want to know about any changes to the Solar 'weather', as early as possible.
The odds are the frame will go into a low orbit within the solar atmosphere, where light pressure may keep it from going really deep, where it is far more likely to be destroyed. It is made of (very thin) ultra-materials which have a non-atomic structure, and would likely survive solar surface temperatures, probably for quite a long while. Any stealth properties of any surviving skin will probably go pretty fast.
Someone might be curious enough to salvage it, given some sun diver ships...
