Static defence and base defence.
Here I see a role for tracks as well.
But uncrewed tracks.
Rather than fixing guns, missiles and radars in place, allowing the enemy to template them and requiring crews to move to them to service them, allow them to move.
Put them on tracks and allow them to move from hangar to firing position and back. Protect the hangar. Control them from the FCS. Comms would be a mixture of redundant means, both fixed an free air.
They do not need to be armoured but they do need to go everywhere on base regardless of mud, marsh or snow.
