I have the same impression as you regarding patriots - not super duper weapons. In my case, I wonder if has something to do with the minimum range. If you play on smaller maps it could be that a good portion of map is within minimum range that patriot cannot fire. Particularly if the enemy flys in from your side.

I try to setup my patriot battery at the extreme corner of map to help avoid minimum range issue - but often forget.

Once patriot shoots, most likely it will be quickly seen and targeted. Just like you can quickly spot enemy missile launchers.
