Defense - Production, within their designs categories, so for example from newest to oldest infantry, recon, tank, etc.

On unrelated note why sometimes I can choose only one unit out of multiple when researching new designs within same category?
What dots mean under unit icon, when viewing their designs?

Sorry, I don't understand the question

More dots = better unit. It's a quality rating. It's an overall score though, some units may have specialties making them more valuable than "strong".

1. Sorry for bad english.... I meant there were some designs, that I couldn't choose, if I chose different units. Was that bug?
That happened while researching designs before 30' tech level.
2. What is use of low quality unit if it isn't specialist, if you have a lot of money?
Are they useful only for smaller countries/as a speed bump?

When hitting Esc, in game options, do you have "show obsolete units" or "show replaced units" not active?

Yes, these options are disabled.
I guess I neglected long enough unit design in beginning, that replaced designs got hidden when I selected most advanced one.
Edit: Yes, these designs got hidden for being replaced/obsolete.
I guess dev forgot about that feature :p

If we apply a sort here, I'd think quality rating would make more sense...

I feel like there is a sort logic on this list but don't remember what it is.

I urge you not to place too much emphasis on dots. I have never found them to be useful or reliable. Look at the units stats and decide what it is best for, regardless of dots. My opinion.
