Do these versions get regular updates or are they expected to run on air-gapped machines so nobody really has to take care of them?

Yes but no feature updates, so for example LTSC 2021 is "stuck" on 21H2 from 2021. But it gets the regular security and bugfix updates, last one was June 9th

See here (Enterprise and IoT Enterprise LTSB/LTSC editions):

They receive updates on time. I've been supporting a few LTSC machines for friends and relatives, haven't ever seen them receive any unnecessary junk through Windows Update. Just bug and vulnerability fixes.
