Probably, when used as part of 64mm warhead, SEFOPs can be a bit more powerful and thus do some damage to power armor too.

Those TL9 SEFOPS are already being formed by explosives 4x as powerful as TNT. Go to TL10 and you can get an exploive 6x as powerful as TNT and that would give you 4D+4(2).

To penetrate the DR 70 Torso of the lightest suit of Powered Armor in UT you need more than 20D of penetration though that can come from a broad range of base damage and Armor Divisor. To do it with a 15mm weapon from UT at TL9 you have to go to the 15mm Anti-Material Rifle and use APHD for 15D (2). If you just have tio have SEFOP you have to go up to 25mm for 15D(3) Cr.
