^ while it is true that other defense objectives health scale with enemy level (defense target, mobile defense console, rescue target, defectors ?) there is one major difference with excavators :
 * excavators aren't mission critical, ie: losing one (or ten) excavator(s) will not trigger a mission fail

(note that for defectors you can afford to lose a few... but you will fail if you lose too many)
