I am not sure what makes that tube attractive - it has a rather lackluster set of parameters, but be it as it may, yes, the E and the DR versions are much more rugged than the plain one, much more tolerant of shocks and vibrations, and have longer life. This usually is not the result of selection, but better materials and beefed up construction - no selection will give you five times better shock resistance.

BTW, there is also the "I" version, specifically designed for pulse operation, and intuitively that would not be my first choice for audio work.
