Nothing, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, determines the experience points needed for the first part slot expansion except the lowest part slot count for any of the categories at Lv.1. That's it. Nothing else decides it.

The points needed for the first part slot expansion are here: https://www.reddit.com/r/acecombat/comments/35wn2i/whats_up_with_the_slot_expansion/cr925x3 Have you noticed in patterns beyond the first slot? There does not seem to be any correlation to the chart in your link beyond the first slot. As the OP said, the first slot in the ADF-01 followed that chart (4841), but the second slot was about 9,000.
