This heavy blaster rifle & light-repeater is fitted with optics that allow the weapon to deliver suppressive fire from long-range.
In Star Wars Battlefront (2017) the Imperial DLT-19 and scoped RT-97C blaster rifles respectively achieve a sustainable fire-rate of 700 shots per minute and 600 shots per minute, consistent with this video example. The sustainable fire-rate of the E-11 blaster, for comparison, is 300 shots per minute.

Imperial battle droids demolish a ~60mm (2.5 in) thick metal door using E-11 blaster gauntlets.
The door was blasted apart in a quartet of explosions that had enough force to scatter its mass. This demolition was performed so that the sentry droids could quickly pursue fleeing rebels past the closed door.
The blasters were clearly used on a higher power setting to achieve this level of destruction. At all other times, the battledroids continued to discharge standard power shots with blasters set to kill. Note the difference in magnitude between regular powered shots which merely scorch thick metal surfaces and maximum power shots that can actually blast through through the bulkhead.
Considering what a maximum powered shot can evidently do to an unarmoured metal surface, vehicular armour that can shrug off blaster fire with minimal or non-existent visible damage must be orders of magnitude more resistant compared to structural metals like titanium & steel (in terms of intercepting directed energy weapons).
