CAESAR in particular is not that fast. Tracked vehicles that I know of can do shoot and scoot a lot faster. CAESAR is fiddly with setup taking quite a bit of time. It might just be a matter of Russian operational procedure. If they just sent an artillery barrage at the coordinates the artillery rounds come from immediately they could catch them. But it would be hard to minimize collateral damage in that case. Without spotter confirmation via drone or something. The Ukrainians are also likely shooting outside Krasnopol range which is 20km.wheeled spgs are highly effective, ukrainians are using the french caesars to frequently bombard donetsk, and the russians can't seem to stop them, I still haven't understood where they're firing from, but it's safe to say that given their mobility, they're always on the move
Some GLONASS MLRS barrage would get it. If the Russians don't mind the collateral damages.
This is an issue modern combat has. The Saudis have been spending quite a bit of money on modern portable counter artillery radar from the US. This is something China could easily do if they wanted to since they have the base technology. And laser guided rounds are nice but insufficient. You would likely be better off with dual mode Laser + Beidou.
