Why do you need two batteries of 12cm mortars and a battery of 105mm at battalion? And a SHORAD battery on top of that? I'm not saying it's bad (heavy though), but what is the reason?
2 Armored Battalion
1 Mechanized battalion

1 MERAD battery, NASAMS or European/Israeli equivalent

My question above is especially pertinent when you are essentially duplicating capability at brigade level. If you keep the 155mms drop the 105s at battalion level as they are unnecessary.
2 Armored Brigade
1 Mechanized Brigade
2 203mm/210 or whatever heavy howitzer battery
1 Cruise missile battery
1 LRAD battery

Your 203mm should really be a corps asset, same with cruise missiles. Divisions should be maneuvering not conducting that level of strikes. Also same with LRAD. Bump tour MLRS all into one fires brigade and attach it to division with some 155mm batteries included, and leave a battery or two of 155mm at brigade. Drop the 105mms. That disclutters your fires, puts control where needed, eases logistics, and allows your divisions to do division things and not get bogged down. LRAD, cruise missiles, and heavy guns are a corps asset that are better managed and supported there.
You push a lot of firepower down where it is unwieldy and difficult to support, and then clutter it up with overlapping types of weapons which produce competition for supply.
