Stukas, or Junkers Ju 87 dive bombers, were equipped with sirens known as "Jericho Trumpets" to instill psychological terror in their targets during attacks. The sirens activated during the dive bombing approach created a distinctive wailing sound, amplifying the fear and chaos as the aircraft descended. This auditory effect aimed to demoralize enemy troops and civilians, enhancing the effectiveness of the bombing raids. Additionally, the sound served to signal to friendly forces the approach of the aircraft.
The Receiving End of Sirens ended in 2008.
The blitz sirens went off when radar detected enemy bombers approaching.
