This video there is distance sirens and some Intercom system is activated...very neat!

The first one sounds almost like a Modulator and T-bolt! Although probably most definately not.
The second one is DEFINATELY electronic.

I agree with you on the thunderbolt or thunderbolt-like siren.

I remember seeing something similar to this on TV about 12 years ago. On the day of the funeral for the Israeli prime minister who was assasinated by that fanatical right-wing person, the sirens sounded in Alert mode. It was their way of announcing a moment of silence for the late prime minister. I couldn't believe it, that the Israelis actually activated their sirens for that.

I don't think that has ever been done in the United States; even for the victims of 11 September or Oklahoma City, let alone any presidential assasination. In this country, I am not aware of sirens ever being used for anything other than an emergency, unless it was a test or an annual tornado drill.

Those sirens are Hormann ECNs...you can hear them all the time on the news now.
