Came across this awhile back. I think it won with me. You can hear a 2T22, a 2001-130 and a Thunderbolt 1000 on terminal 6 (my favorite 1000 setting), all in attack:

This is one of my favorites: a tsunami siren test in Gold Beach, Oregon. You can hear a Model 3, a Sentry 3V8, and what is probably a Model 5 (the closest siren) inside a custom square housing. The unusual part is the 4/4 second attack cycle instead of the usual 8/4.

Here is my video from Sandwich, IL which has a pretty sick attack cycle:

Here are some from Germany:
Aachen's system of god knows how many 9 port sirens in warning the population: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vqsElPntj0
Don't know where this one is from but there is way too many E57s to count. They run in warning the population, fire alarm, and all clear: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5chbn9ezap8

This one reminds me of the attack scene from "Threads"...

Yeah, that one is pretty hair-raising.

What do you guys think of this ambience from Clinton, South Carolina? I think it's fairly eerie. I do believe this was already discussed, but I think this recording captures the "true creepiness" of the system going off. To my knowledge, the sirens heard are a 3t22, an STH-10, and an OA-2

That system ambience has been posted before by me, believe it or not, but you still can't beat that echo.

Oh... Still sounds creepy enough to deserve a second nod though, at least in my opinion.

Speaking of other ambiences, check out this one from Birmingham, Alabama. I think the Thunderbolt that (partially) failed is the one next to the closed Red Lobster on Oporto Madird down the road from the I-20 bridge. Im able to make out a Thunderbolt 1000AT (fairly certain it's the one behind the public library in Irondale), a 1000A (HAS to be Birmingham city hall), and an STL-10 (Dixieland Rd. in Irondale)
