Timeline
At the beginning of 2020, his name was mentioned to succeed Admiral Christophe Prazuck as chief of the Naval Staff or Admiral Bernard Rogel as chief of the personal military staff of the President of the Republic. He was appointed Chief of the Naval Staff during the Council of Ministers of 22 July 2022, starting the following 12 September.
In January 2021, he presented the “Mercator acceleration” plan. Launched in 2018 by his predecessor, the Mercator plan aims to define the objectives to be achieved by the French Navy in 2030 and is structured around three dimensions: Combat Navy, Cutting-Edge Navy and All-Talent Navy. In 2021, Admiral Vandier made the following observation: since the publication of the Mercator plan in 2018, geopolitical tensions have increased. The pace of strategic change has increased. The race of the world has accelerated, and the oceans are experiencing a naval rearmament unprecedented for several decades. In this uncertain international context, while guaranteeing the permanent posture of nuclear deterrence and the daily use of our resources within the framework of the action of the State at sea, the Chief of the Defence Staff must be able to employ a Navy prepared for high-intensity combat that could occur in shared areas, and at sea in particular.
In June 2021, Admiral Vandier also took over the presidency of the Indian Ocean Naval Symposium (IONS), during a symposium in Reunion.
He has been serving as the Chief of the Naval Staff since 1 September 2020, after having been head of the military cabinet of the French Minister of the Armed Forces from 1 September 2018 to 31 August 2020, and commanding officer of the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle from 2013 to 2015.
His predecessor, Admiral Christophe Prazuck, gave him the Admiralty mark during a ceremony onboard aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle on 1 September 202024.
At the end of July 2013, he assumed command of aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle. He was deployed to the Indian Ocean twice, in the winter of 2013 to carry out Mission Bois-Belleau, and in the spring of 2015 for Mission Arromanches, during which he took part in Operation Chammal in Iraq. In January 2017, he took up the post of International Relations Coordination Authority (ALRI) at the Naval Staff and was promoted to commodore on 1 September 2017. He was then appointed deputy commander of the maritime district of the Mediterranean and commander of the Toulon defence base. Appointed Chief of the Military Cabinet of the Minister of the Armed Forces on 1 September 2018, he was then elevated to the rank and title of vice admiral on 1 January 2020. Appointed Chief of the Naval Staff, he was elevated to the rank and title of admiral on 1 September 2020.
As a neighbouring nation of the Indian Ocean, France is by right a member of IONS since 2014, and takes over the presidency for a period of two years.
After obtaining the atomic engineering certificate in early 2009, he took up the post of programme management officer in the “Plans” division of the Defence Staff (French: Etat-Major des Armées, acronym: EMA). He was responsible for the Rafale programme and the NH90 and Tiger helicopter programmes in particular. In the summer of 2011, he took up the position of head of operations for the Africa area (J3) at the planning and operations management centre (French: Centre de Planification et de Conduite des Opérations, acronym: CPCO) at the Defence Staff. He was head of the crisis unit for Operation Serval in Mali from January to July 2013.
The IONS was created in 2008 with the aim of promoting cooperation between the military navies of the states bordering the Indian Ocean and consolidating a common approach to the challenges and responses related to the issues of the area. This body is the privileged forum for exchange between these 25 nations, to which are added eight observer States and eight States invited by France during this edition.
After completing his studies with the 12th class of the Joint College of Defence (French: Collège Interarmées de Défense), he held the position of head of the operations department of aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle from 2005 to 2007. During this time, the air wing aircraft were again employed in Afghanistan in support of the troops of the ISAF (International Security Assistance Force, under the command of NATO). In the summer of 2007, he took command of frigate Surcouf and took part in Operation Thalatine to rescue hostages aboard the sailing yacht Ponant in the Indian Ocean.
At the end of the Jeanne d’Arc application campaign, he was assigned to frigate Commandant Bory, involved in the operations of the first Gulf War in 1991 (Operation Artimon and support for Operation Daguet). From the summer of 1992, he trained as a fighter pilot in Salon de Provence, in Tours and then in Hyères, and joined the Landivisiau fighter squadrons on Super-Etendard fighter aircraft (squadron 17F, then 11F). He carried out several combat missions in Bosnia (1995/1997 – Operation Salamandre) and in Kosovo (1999 – Operation Trident). Transferred to Rafale aircraft in 2001, he assumed command of the 12F squadron, which was the first squadron of Rafale Marine aircraft, from 2002 to 2004. He completed the military testing of this new carrier-based fighter jet to prepare for its commissioning and carried out several missions in Afghanistan during Mission Agapanthe in 2004.
