as for space prowess, their ships have the same cloaking tech which would again give them an advantage unmatchable by anyone except maybe necrons.

and as for any alliances, yautja have no interest in other races except for hunting purposes, but based on the avp novels they may ally, very grudgingly, if tyranids were a threat to the existance of their own race. When Tau cloaking can be "Deactivated" by god-damn dust clouds (See Fire and Honour) and Covenant Cloaking can slightly be seen by a normal human, then yeah Yautja cloaking is better then both of those.

And for the Tyranid part, they will most likely hunt them like how they hunt down Xenomorphs.
