War Thunder's latest update rolls out today with the Leopard 2RI taking center stage in the Indonesian jungle, but the real draw this week is the 229th screenshot competition asking you to bring a squadmate along for the ride.

The competition runs until June 26th and rewards six winners with 300 GE each, three chosen by community vote, three by the dev judges. The catch: your screenshot must feature two or more allied vehicles in the same frame. It's a smart way to push squad play over lone-wolf grinding, and honestly, some of the best War Thunder moments happen when you've got a wingman covering your flank.

Raw screenshots only, no Nvidia Ansel filters or external editing tools allowed, though War Thunder's built-in filters and replay system are fair game. Previous competition winners are limited to one community-vote win per four competitions, keeping things fresh. Winners get their GE within 14 working days. Tag your submission #WTscreen229 on the Steam Community Hub and you're in.

Check the full patch notes below for all the details on this update.
