[UT] Plasma Torch vs. big metal door on a spaceship?

Looking at the hvy plasma torch in UT - 4d+1(5) - I think the problem is that you need a real industrial torch or water jet cutter for anything over an inch in steel. And that should have an AD(10) and a much larger damage.

Also are you attacking the whole surface (112 DR/inch) or the Cover DR (~70DR)? I would rule that these tools are continuously piercing the Cover DR in a very small space. RAW doesn't seem to include metals in the semi-ablative/ablative note so move onto a better tool.
