No. Weapon platforms, satellites, fighters, mines, troops: none of them can be upgraded. They can be scrapped, but that is about it.

This has been brought up by the beta testers, but there have been other issues of more importance to get addressed than this.

You can scrap units? How?

Sorry. I misspoke. You have to jettison cargo with WP's, troops, satellites, etc. I don't think you can actually can scrap ( get raw materials back) any of these units. This and upgrading has been a long term discussion.

Units that can be deployed in space may be scrapped if they are deployed in the presence of a space yard. So, satellites and fighters may be scrapped by taking the trouble to deploy them. Weapon Platforms don't deploy too well. http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif So, there's no way to scrap them currently. It's very annoying to have to heave your weapon platforms into space to make room for the next generation technology. We hope for a change in game mechanics to deal with this problem one day.
