I believe another reason for this excercise is to familiarize with each others aircraft and tactics as officials from RAF's Air Warfare Centre and IAFs TACDE (Tactics and Combat Development Establishment) are both present at the exercise as observers.

However, the Tornados could prove a liability the Typhoons have to defend against the more powerful MKIs.
From what I've read, it is a mixed force; not IAF vs RAF. Also, I believe that even the Sentrys may be taking part in this exercise.
