Well, from the link you provided :

"The tandem warhead consists of a small-caliber leading HEAT warhead and a follow-through thermobaric/FAE (Fuel-Air Explosive) warhead, which explodes inside the target to achieve maximum damage effect."

And looking at the OOB (#11, Weapon #32) we see it's stats are :
WC = 8 (Infantry Flame)
Acc = 20
Warhead = 3
HE Pen = 15
HE Kill = 50
AP Pen = 222
HEAT Pen = 35
Range = 8

So yeah, given these stats while it may not have all that great a HEAT Pen value its FAE effects make it pretty deadly.

I've personally long questioned the values given the Russian FAE weapons.
Look at the SMAW-NE (OOB #13, Weapon #162)
WC = 18 (Napalm)
Acc = 20
Warhead = 3
HE Pen = 2
HE Kill = 27
AP Pen = 222
HEAT Pen = 27
Range = 10

Why such a great difference between them?
