Dassault, in spat with Airbus, says European fighter jet project at risk
PARIS, July 22 (Reuters) - French warplane maker Dassault Aviation ( opens new tab raised questions over the future of a Franco-German-Spanish fighter jet project on Tuesday in a growing feud with Europe's Airbus ( opens new tab over control of the futuristic program that combines traditional warplanes with automated drones. CEO Eric Trappier said the Future Combat Air System, widely known under its French initials SCAF, needed clearer leadership and organisation as partners move towards a second phase that calls for a flying model to prove its cutting-edge technology. SCAF is one of several so-called sixth-generation fighter projects expected to combine traditional crewed warplanes with a cohort of uncrewed and armed drones. Britain is working on a similar proposal with Italy and Japan known as GCAP. Dassault, which builds France's Rafale warplanes, is in charge of efforts to come up with designs for the core fighter, one of several "pillars" in the hugely complex SCAF project. Trappier said that in practice, decisions over key parts of the current design phase were having to be cleared with Airbus, adding complexity and contributing to delays. "They say Dassault is the leader but that all decisions must be taken between three (countries)," Trappier said at a half-yearly earnings conference. Airbus, which represents both Germany and Spain in the project with Dassault backed by France, declined comment. Asked if Dassault was threatening to leave the SCAF project, Trappier indicated the programme's wider future was at stake. "It is not a question of leaving SCAF but of deciding if it continues or not," he said. However, he strongly denied reports that Dassault was seeking 80% control. Dassault and Airbus, two historic European industry rivals called on to work together after French President Emmanuel Macron and then German Chancellor Angela Merkel launched the initiative in 2017, have squabbled repeatedly over handling of the project to replace current warplanes by 2040. The latest comments came on the eve of a Berlin summit between Macron and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz that are expected to touch on the status of the defence project, according to a French presidential adviser and industry sources. Airbus Defence & Space CEO Michael Schoellhorn told the Paris Air Forum last month that governance had been agreed and that Airbus, a leading partner in the Eurofighter Typhoon, had a history of successful cooperation with other defence firms.

Ryder Cup to return to Spain in 2031
It will be the second time the biennial event has been staged in the country, after Valderrama in 1997. The news was announced by the European Tour Group on Tuesday. We're heading back to Spain for the first time since 1997 🇪🇺 — Ryder Cup Europe (@RyderCupEurope) July 22, 2025 It will only be the fourth time the tournament will have been played in continental Europe after Paris (2018) and Rome (2023) followed Valderrama as hosts. This year's Ryder Cup takes place at Bethpage Black in New York in September. Adare Manor in Limerick, Ireland will be the venue in 2027 and Hazeltine, near Minnesota in 2029. Guy Kinnings, chief executive of the European Tour Group, said: 'Today's announcement not only recognises Camiral as one of Europe's leading venues, but also the considerable contribution Spanish golf has made to the proud history of the Ryder Cup. 'The Ryder Cup has grown significantly since Spain last hosted it in 1997. It is one of the world's leading sporting events, which brings significant economic benefits and global exposure to a host region and country, so we could not be happier to be taking it to Costa Brava and Barcelona for the first time, and to Spain for the second time.' Eleven Spaniards have represented Europe throughout the competition's history and Seve Ballesteros famously captained the team to victory over the United States at Valderrama. Seve Ballesteros captained Europe to victory at Valderrama (PA) Camiral, which is close to Girona and around an hour's travel from Barcelona, has also been confirmed as the host of the Estrella Damm Catalunya Championship on the DP World Tour from 2028-30. Jose Manuel Rodriguez Uribes, president of Spain's national sports council, said: 'The Government of Spain welcomes the selection of Camiral as the host venue for the 2031 Ryder Cup – a global sporting event that will showcase our country to millions of viewers around the world. 'The Ryder Cup is not only one of the most prestigious competitions on the international sporting calendar, but also an exceptional platform to demonstrate Spain's ability to successfully host major 21st-century events, combining world-class infrastructure, unparalleled natural environment and a globally renowned tourism, cultural and culinary offering.' Juan Guerrero-Burgos, president of the Royal Spanish Golf Federation, said: 'It is an honour for Spain to host the Ryder Cup for the second time in history. 'The previous experience at Valderrama in 1997 was extraordinary. The economic impact, media coverage and more importantly, the legacy to our sport, tourism and awareness of golf in our country were unbelievable.'

Just in: Melbourne is the sixth best city in the world for nightlife right now
If this news doesn't call for one helluva party, we don't know what will. It's just been announced that Melbourne has ranked sixth on Time Out's list of the world's top 20 best cities for nightlife – and while it's no shock to any of us locals who love a late-night boogie and bev, we're still pretty damn stoked to be named among some of the hottest party spots around the globe. In case you hadn't realised, we've long been a champion of nightlife – and that's why we set out to collate the world's greatest cities for going out in 2025. We quizzed thousands of people in hundreds of the world's best cities, asking them to rate both the quality and affordability of their city's nightlife scene, from clubbing and bars to pubs and nighttime entertainment. After crunching all that data, we narrowed down the selection by excluding cities with lower overall scores and only including the highest-scoring city for each country. To create the final ranking, a panel of nightlife experts, including Time Out's city editors and arts and culture writers, voted on their faves. So which city claimed the top after-dark accolade? None other than the legendary party den of Las Vegas. Yep, the glittering, neon-lit strip is officially the hottest nightlife spot in 2025. And you know what, we get it – it's fun, it's full on and whether you're at a giant rave, epic EDM set or swanky cocktail bar, you know it's gonna be a guaranteed good time. Rounding out the rest of the top five is the Spanish capital of Madrid in second, Paris in third (duh, that one's a classic), Shanghai in fourth and Berlin (another no-brainer) in fifth. That means Melbourne beat out certified party spots like Amsterdam, Bangkok, Mexico City and Cape Town. How good! Back to Melbourne. We've always known our all-hours city is Australia's undisputed nightlife capital, and now we can really rub it in (sorry, Sydney!). On any given evening, you can find a basement club catering for all kinds of subcultures, an intimate bar with a vinyl collection that will have you swooning (hello, Music Room) or a glittering drag show starring a roster of fabulous queens. And while the tried-and-true nightclubs remain a rite of passage for all partygoers – we're looking at you, Revs – there's been a noticeable shift to alternative after-hours adventures. Think chic, cosy lounges with epic sound systems à la Waxflower, Caretaker's Cottage and Angel Music Bar, or late-night festivals like Rising and Now or Never that host exhibitions, feasts and parties well into the wee hours. If we take a look at the stats, locals in Melbourne were fourth-most likely to describe their city as 'lively', and an impressive 81 per cent of Melburnians rated their city highly for nightlife. However, only 23 per cent agreed that a night out in the city is cheap, making it one of the lowest-ranked cities for affordability. Ok, so there's room for improvement – but hey, if we can fix that we're a shoe-in for the number one spot next year. Sleep? There's no time for that in Melbourne – see you out there, no matter how late it is. Here's the full list of the the world's 20 best cities for nightlife: Las Vegas, USA Madrid, Spain Paris, France Shanghai, China Berlin, Germany Melbourne, Australia Brighton, UK Mexico City, Mexico Dubai, UAE Mumbai, India Cape Town, South Africa Warsaw, Poland Bangkok, Thailand Lagos, Nigeria Cairo, Egypt Riyadh, Saudi Arabia Amsterdam, The Netherlands Medellín, Colombia Marrakesh, Morocco Athens, Greece Stay in the loop: sign up for our free Time Out Melbourne newsletter for the best of the city, straight to your inbox.
