Each upgrade increases all Troops' marching speed by 5%
Rapid Deployment is a Research that can be studied with Science Centers (minimum SC level:4)
It increases marching speed by 5% every level.

Calculating troop march time using RD research levels:
S=31+4426.8*D/(B*(1+0.05*RD))
where S is march time in seconds, D is distance in map grid squares, B is troop base speed and RD is Rapid Deployment research level.
This equation isn't a perfect fit, but it is accurate for distances greater than 10 squares for the fastest troop (Stalkers), and well within 1/10th of one percent for the slowest troop (Titans). Using this equation for Titans over the farthest possible distance, D=530.33, there is a discrepancy of -11.5 seconds over 8h 25m 35s. All of the data points I used to derive this equation are from RD 11, and it is uncertain whether it holds up using different research levels.
To calculate SSD and BD march times as they are affected by both RD and Dragonry research levels, use the same equation, but replace
(1+0.05*RD)
with
(1+0.05*RD+0.05*Dy)
where Dy is the Dragonry level.
