Exactly.

I do the same thing. Refit with some FC and Sensors and stuff giant missiles in them. They are a nice pile of free size 24 box launchers basically.
I usually refit them to TN electronics and design a size-24 BHM (Big Honking Missile) to go into them once I'm at decent missile/radar tech levels (i.e. 2-3 in each attribute). They're expensive, but I'm role-playing it as a realistic defence for good old Mother Earth.
The trick is to not change the armor or the launchers - that keeps the refit cost down to that of the fire control. I usually have a separate (heavily armored) PDC with active sensor, and build a new one every time I get a generational upgrade. Finally, I build a few AMM PDC.

Also, what are the use of ICBM, except to give civilians the warm feeling that someone is actually looking after them.
I know. That's why I want to scrap them. (And to get at the crews)
