WB SIREN - STUKA SIREN HOWL

This's a Warner Bros. sound effect not available on the Warner Bros. Sound Effects Library. It's the original recording, more or less imitating the siren of the German Stuka dive bombers. In most media today, it's usually heard in a very high-pitched, yell-like, processed version known as Sound Ideas, CARTOON, AIRPLANE - PROP PLANE POWER DIVE SCREAM. Most versions of this sound have been used by Ben Burtt for the Star Wars and Indiana Jones franchises. This "apocalyptic howl" was recreated in for the 2017 Warner Bros. picture, "Dunkirk", by sound designer Richard King.
