Guys this might be a really stupid question, but please help:

When you research a technology like armor for troopers, does that effect dark troopers?? Are they considered troopers even though they arent in troop center but in fortress?? The same is true with the rebs. Do their air upgrades apply to snowspeeder? Or are they not an "air" unit because they are created in the fortress. Although the answer seems obvious i am not so sure. I dont think upgrading reb air to shields will affect snowspeeders. Please respond

Dark Troopers are troopers and air speeders are air units.

Dark troopers will get all the trooper upgrades and air units will get all the air updates.

when you upgrade stuff(example Armor at the war center) it says it only affects TROOP CENTER units so it does not affect Dark Troopers and porkins i think ur right about the air unit part

I actually looked that up in the techtree and you're right ... you can only upgrade creation speed and jedi/sith resistance for special units.

I think that's odd.

Unique does not mean specially powerful. It just means it's a unit that only that civ would have, and no other civ would...
