These are 2 extremely different rubbers. TDE is extremely hard and dense sponge. It is fairly slow, but is good for very strong loopers. The topsheet is very tacky. The throw angle is medium.

STN is porous sponge, much softer, much faster. The topsheet is tacky. Depending on the version you have, the throw angle might be not just extremely low, but absurdly low.

It takes a different level of EJ to abbreviate "STN" and "TDE" and expect most people to know what they are talking about. Might help to spell it out here...
Sorry. I've seen too many abbreviated names. I was referring to the Sanwei Target National (the new silver-cased version) and the Victas Triple Double Extra.

I'm curious, has anybody tried the new silver case STN? Did they fix the throw angle or is it still low?

I was very surprised to see @TensorBackhand answered this question, as for me, I don't even know what the OP is asking.
Few replies ahead, it became clear now.
