the operator of those would get hit by an aerial drone from one of the other tunnel exits
a network of tunnels and sensors is easier to defend than a open space exposed position where drones can see you from miles away, I guess that makes tunnels better for defense
Given that we have bunker busters that will travel beyond the horizon at hypersonic speeds and bust 200 feet of reinforced concrete...

Also, I'll grant that a drone can see you from miles away, but don't you think any one of a large and growing number of satellites can spot your massive earthworks from tens and hundreds of miles away for the months or years it takes you to construct?
Given that we have nuclear weapons why bother making anything?
Makes me think the noble houses of Westeros should have dug tunnels to foil the Targaryen dragon advantage.
