in research lab after the name of what you are researching there is a rank number...
if you want to check ships or defense structures..just click on the picture in those 2 catagories..look for the item you upgraded..ie firepower...take the base number of that ship/defense..and times it by whatever rank you are...

Name Destroyer
The Destroyer is the result of years of work and development. With the development of Deathstars, it was decided that a class of ship was needed to defend against such a massive weapon.Thanks to its improved homing sensors, multi-phalanx Ion cannons, Gauss Cannons and Plasma Turrets, the Destroyer turned out to be one of the most fearsome ships created.
Because the destroyer is very large, its maneuverability is severely limited, which makes it more of a battle station than a fighting ship. The lack of maneuverability is made up for by its sheer firepower, but it also costs significant amounts of deuterium to build and operate.

Rapid Fire Against Espionage Ship 5
Rapid Fire Against Solar Satellite 5
Rapid Fire Against Battlecruiser 2
Rapid Fire Against Light Laser 10
Rapid Fire From Death Star 5
Structure points 110.000
Shield Strength 500
Attack Points 2.000
Cargo Capacity 2.000 Units
Base Speed 5.000
Fuel Consumption (Deuterium) 1.000

so using the destroyer and you are rank 10 in firepower attack points of that ship would be 2200

don't multiple each upgrade by 10..don't work like that..each upgrade increases BASE firepower by 10%..so you upgraded 2000 attack points 10 times at 20 points each resulting in the 2200

can use that formula to see what each ship is at for you on all 3 techs that effect them..shield/firepower/armor

When Gumppy says rank 10 he means upgraded 10%. Not level 10. Level 10 you would double the damage.

or you can watch your previous CR's and you can see under each ship all the data that you need .

For example :

Weapons: 140 % Shields: 130 % Armor: 130 %
Type B.ship Destroyer.

Number 1 1

Weapon 2.040 5.253

Shield 412 1.384

Armour 14.700 26.950
