I don’t remember the book saying that the demons damaged the fleet. I know Ka’Banda fell through space and saw the fleet battle and then the demons and tyranids on the moon fought. I might just have forgotten something. Apologies if that is the case however I do remember that after the rift opened a very large portion of the fleet was destroyed due to how the opening of the great rift affected the hive mind. In that way I guess chaos did inadvertently help the blood angels but I know Guiliman told Dante after the fight that he had basically beaten the Tyranids before the crusade got there but that could just be the G man trying to cheer Dante up.

      They're really not overpowered, just very fast and have physics-defying warp-infused claws that cut through anything. Tyranid claws are similar to power swords because they're all psychic.
