I can remember driving from Wichita to Tulsa, you would see several of them in the distance from the road.
There did not appear to be any defensive measures other than fences tho I am sure there was.

The flying sequences for the original Christopher Reeves Superman movie were shot in Alberta, Canada because all of the US footage shot in Kansas, Nebraska, the Dakotas, etc. kept having missile silos turning up in the picture (which would not have been there during the Depression)

There were no ABM or anti-air sites in that area either.
