Destroying the targeting computers in the control room deactivates the SAM site. Attempting to destroy the launchers or the rotating radar device doesn't appear to have any effect. The site remains down until the Queen sends a new garrison to the site. If the Queen's forces reoccupy the zone they will repair the computers and after some delay the site becomes operational again.
There is an exploit to this. The Queen only sends the reinforcing force when the site is "captured". Enter the zone, attack the control room with a mortar or an RPG then leave before the defenders can get to you. If you don't kill all of the original defenders she doesn't see it as a capture, doesn't send the reinforcements, and the repair function never occurs.
This is particularly devious when attached to the Covert Ops "dirty tricks". Send in a Spy disguised as a soldier to plant explosives. You don't have to actually get into the control room, plant the explosives outside but next to the wall where the computers are. It can be tricky to do without being exposed but when it works, the site goes down and stays down.
