I do not know the specific doctrine for the SK-105 (or the AMX-13, which has the same issues) but it looks like an ambush weapon to me. Get in a good position, fire a few shots, get out and reload the autoloaders in a quiet place. That and maybe some infantry support. Not something meant to slug it out in the open battlefield for an extended period of time. Besides 4-5 seconds does not make it a 105mm machinegun.

Yup, seems like an ambush weapon to me (though AMX-13's were able to duke it out even with T-54's but then it was thanks to crew proficiency on one side and (relative) lack thereof on the other) but I guess the 4-5sec ROF isn't too practical in combat (except if you are zeroed on a big and relatively immobile target you need to suppress) - I'd say new target acquisition would take roughly the same as on any other tank and thus practical ROF would be similar.
