The official Steam listing supplies 1920×1080 screenshots with cockpit, character, preparation and aerial views. Use the source links below to view the originals. They are 16:9 images, not verified native 4K wallpapers; ultrawide displays will need cropping, letterboxing or another image.

Choose fit before increasing resolution
A 1920×1080 image matches a 16:9 screen shape. On a 21:9 display, a fill setting crops some of the top and bottom; a fit setting can preserve the entire frame with empty space at the sides. Compare the actual subject before accepting a crop, especially when a cockpit or preparation UI is important.
Displaying a 1080p original on a 4K monitor enlarges it; it does not create native 4K detail. This page does not label an upscale as a higher-resolution official asset. The local page previews use 800- and 1600-pixel WebP variants for browsing, while the external links identify the source originals.
Keep screenshots separate from mission evidence
A promotional screenshot can identify the game’s visual style. It cannot prove our own playthrough, a Mission 28 rank, a hidden unlock or your system’s frame rate. Use official videos for motion and hardware requirements before purchase.
For the character shown in the hangar, see Tasha’s official introduction. For the four-aircraft preparation scene, use squad ownership and weapon-slot planning; the screenshot is not a complete unlock tree.
