Any chance of getting me the U2 requirements for Nem & saturn flagships and all the U3 info? I am happy to put in all in a chart and will also post a list of what each upgrade rewards you with for reference.
I m going to edit the post with new info as it becomes available - just about to edit it and add some forum links for further info also.
Apart from knowing how many upgrade kits (and buildtime) every level takes, it would be nice to know what every upgrade does.
Just trying to decide on best way to present it all with out it looking complicated
In reality a chart for each hull that contains all the info for that hull would be good but then we end up with a lot of charts....... and more to come I guess.
Just trying to keep it as simple as I can but will get something posted soon. Can always change it later if I am not happy with the format.
EDIT - Post updated with all the info I have so far

Please pin this thread where players can find it easily.
We can now see how many kits we have and if we need to obtain more, thus eliminating waste.

If you mean this slot - it unlocks at U2 - CIC slot and U2 also unlocks the 2 free CICs that go on it
Since I don't play much anymore and kix have followed the same pattern with hulls upgrades I have stopped upgrading this post as I thought most have it worked out now but you can still use the above for newer hulls in PVE.
PVP is a different story - I don't play PVP anymore (just my choice) so I don't get the data to upgrade here.
If anyone wants to take the post over and continue to update it, I am happy to send you my spreadsheets so you can just added to it - might need to start a new post to give you full access to editing ect. shoot me a pm if anyone is interested.
Silverfish as below - also grabbed some info from missus's account
My flagship is already U3 so unable to get any info - kits are 10-40-80
