I love this concept from Russia, it could be really effective with a few changes:
Russia unveils prototype of crewless howitzer
Rusya, Army 2024 fuarında mürettebatsız bir obüs prototipini tanıttı. Klever adı verilen ve paletli bir platform üzerine monte edilen prototip, çeşitli uluslararası fuarlarda ve ulusal geçit törenlerinde sergilenen ve birçoğu henüz savaş alanında aktif olarak kullanılmayan bir dizi askeri...

"According to information provided by TASS; the crewless vehicle mounted on the MTS-15 tracked platform is designed for remote operations.
According to a brief description given at the exhibition, the howitzer can be controlled from a distance of up to 500 meters and the system has an automatic loader that can hold four rounds.
Russian developers envision the system's primary role as an autonomous artillery unit that can emerge from cover, fire a small number of rounds, and then retreat to a safe location to repeat the process."
I think a better application for a system like this would be to make it preprogramed, instead of directly controlled. Just give it a coordinate to fire and a coordinate to fire from, an autoloader with 4-6 rounds (iirc most of our artillery has 6 rounds per minute as their maximum firing rate), and an order to return to base after it has completed its mission or if a return order is issued. It might not work with Fırtına or Yavuz or another 155 mm artillery, but I think it would be amazing with Boran.
