This paper aims to contribute to the development of advanced military systems by presenting an innovative algorithm for the efficient operation of RCWS tailored for self-propelled mortars. The design process of a remote-controlled weapon station (RCWS) algorithm for a sophisticated artillery system, specifically a self-propelled mortar, was described. It was highlighted the significance of projectile flight kinematics in the design of a RCWS for artillery systems, delving into the theoretical challenges of targeting with weapon systems. It also analyses the components that make up the RCWS, focusing on the integration and functionality of these elements. Furthermore, examines the self-propelled mortar as a complex artillery system, discussing its purpose and unique characteristics. A key objective outlined is the development of an operational algorithm tailored for RCWS equipped self-propelled mortars, aiming to enhance their efficiency and effectiveness in deployment. The concept of the RCWS for self-propelled mortars, envisaged as a future modern system potentially applicable in the Serbian Armed Forces.
