"No -- as the text states, the determining factor is whether the attack could, if a high enough roll were achieved, do BODY damage. It doesn't have to actually roll that high. As long as it has the potential to roll that high, it ablates some of the defense."
So, if a 3d6 RKA attacks a vehicle with 25 armor (ablative), since the max 3d6 could do is 18 body (generally), there would be no ablative effect. But if the same 3d6 RKA attacked a vehicle with 10 armor (ablative), the armor degrades no matter how much damage is done - 4 body or 12 body.
