Armor - How does it work?

Could anybody please explain the math behind it? Does it essentially extend HP by reducing incoming damage? By how much? How big an effect does upgrading it have? What is the multiplier?

I would think that the formula is

x- y - z% = a

x = attack power
y = armor
z = shield mitigation
a = damage

The attack power on things like frigates are so low I can't think of armor as subtracting anything except its value.
