Is it true that ports get harder to kill the more product upgrades they have?

If so, exactly how many more battle points do they get per point of upgrade?

They get more difficult, but I'm not sure the exact relationship. Also, I think their difficulty might be influenced by the % the port is at, but once again, I'm not exactly sure.

They get more difficult as they are upgraded. The higher the defensive rating, the tougher the port. The defensive rating goes up the more you upgrade the port. The amount of product on a port also affects it's strength. The more product on the port, the easier it is to blow up. (This doesn't hold true for the SD. If you somehow fill up it's buy port, it's still going to be at 2500) The number of battle points you get each upgrade depends on the type of port. A port with 1000 units of each product will defend at 45 when at 100%, and at 30 when at 0%. The same port with 2000 units will defend at 90 when at 100%, and at 60 when at 0%. At 32760 units, the port defends at 1474 at 100%, and 982 at 0%. Stardock always defends at 2500, and goes up 2500 each time it it blown up and it regens. Now, the amount of damage it takes to kill a port and the amount of damage it inflicts on you when you attack it is NOT linear. It takes roughly 30k figs to kill a port (counting losses) at 1474, but it takes 280k figs (counting losses) to kill the SD at 2500, and about 850-900k when it's defensive strength is at 5000. and about 1.4+ million figs at 7500. This assumes 1.2:1 odds of a stock Interdictor Cruiser.
