A powerful Force-user should be capable of performing these actions. None of these showings are extraordinary in the grand scheme of things. Darth Vader just happens to be well-explored in the context of feats and events in both Legends and Canon content of the lore, and some fans mistakenly assume that only few can perform these actions.If a powerful Jedi faces a military vehicle in a battle, I would vouch for the Jedi on the basis of common sense. While a military vehicle might be capable of killing the Jedi with its firepower, the Jedi is still more likely to destroy it.
Darth Malgus haven't been depicted collapsing buildings with his Force powers but he defeated/killed a powerful Jedi in a confrontation who have such showings. If these two haven't officially clashed, many fans would have given the nod to the mysterious Jedi in a hypothetical versus scenario.
Each member of the referred Strike Team is a powerhouse:
Aryn Leener (simultaneously) lifted 6 'cars' of a Tram and hurled them like missiles towards the positions of some enemies with her telekinetic abilities in a confrontation. You understand what a Tram is, right? I assume that she can knock down or destroy an AT-AT.
Tol Braga have also been depicted ripping apart and hurling heavy objects like missiles towards a target with his telekinetic abilities. In-fact, he is officially recognized as one of the most powerful and resolute Jedi. Therefore, his official standing creates room for imagination about what else he is capable of.
Master Wyellet is also a Force-user of such a caliber who would inspire legends in years to come. He proved his mettle in combat time and again, and was the sole survivor of destruction of an Imperial Starship:
The Imperial starship that was transporting Wyellett was destroyed in the Battle of Hoth, and Master Wyellett has been believed dead all these years. In fact, Wyellett has been in a trance beneath the rubble of the fallen ship, psychically trying to reach out to his former pupil. Now, Wyellett has transcended the concerns of this galaxy and his powers are more realized than ever before. (From Star Wars: The Old Republic)
Honestly, it takes a Jedi of legendary repute and Force abilities to survive in these kind of life-threatening situations.

I am being realistic. Vader's chances of handling these 3 powerhouses simultaneously are slim to none even under right circumstances.
Man, first I want to say this thread got heavily derailed. Anyways my friend, I believe you are heavily underestimating vehicle weaponry in SW. There's a difference between making random buildings collapse and destroying an AT-AT in the process. AT-ATs' in Legends canon can survive even Orbital Bombardments from capital ships, turbolasers with the power to vaporize asteroids and rival the power of atomic bombs.
Even the films show AT-AT's tanking Blaster bolts from the Hoth Speeders, which fire much more powerful bolts than those of Han Solos' gun, which has shown capable of vaporizing Rock and Steel. Were these any specific buildings by any chance? Any dimensions given?
Tram cars, just like the buildings, are not in any way comparable to an AT-AT. Vader also with a simple force push bursted Lyleks who themselves are on par with military vehicles, a horde of them require an entire Cities defenses to defeat one. I do not know Ryloth's defensive systems, but if they involve things like anti-ship weaponry then Lyleks must be extremely durable if it requires those levels of firepower.
Vader also in a weakened state brought down a cathedral in Legends canon, and apparently brought down a Palace in the new canon? I dunno, heard something like that. He also tanked the explosion of a bomb at point blank range and crushed building sized Droids. I don't see how the three Jedi masters are near those levels except Wylett, who has impressive defensive capabilities.
Tol might also be a problem since he throws objects at "missile speeds" which is Supersonic if taken literal. How heavy are the objects he throws?
