Xenomorphs can punch through 3 inch steel...yeaaah Steel isn't really that hard of a metal in the 41st millenia...

A Warrior can punch through Ceramite. Ceramite is tougher than steel, obviously. The Xenomorphs have, contrary to popular belief, endoskeletons with heavily stretched skin between them. Tyranids have chitinous exoskeletons, meaning that, while the drones can punch through steel, they will have some problems punching through armor that can take a chainsword for five seconds.
