Defenses also seriously slow down your oppenents bombers. It takes 40 cherry bombs one turn to kill any world with no defenses. It takes many times that to kill a world with defenses, often requires killing the defenses first (which means all the factories and mines as well, lowering the value of the planet for the attacker).

About midgame or maybe a bit later, I will set my queues to be 100 auto defenses first, then factories and mines, and in danger zones, will put mines before factories (mines act as chaff for the defenses somewhat). With auto defenses in your queue you can rebuild them the same turn you take a packet hit (packets that don't hit the same turn they're launched hit before production).
