NOTE: IM NOT ORIGINAL OWNER
re-uploaded this video from a user deleting the video months ago and never uploaded again.
only modification i did was i added a little slideshow of the Victory siren, all from google images.
I do not own any copyright images in this video
you will have a best shot at actually hearing this thing in either car shows, or civil defense museums. i dont know if any private collector owns one yet
SOME INFO: gas powered 331 Hemi V8 180HP, (134.2KW) back then, cost only $5000, 2006 that amount is around $35000, effect range on this siren is over 4 miles in radius,(other siren's effect range is on average 1.5 miles radius, sometimes 2 miles if your lucky) it can be heard up to 30 miles radius on a perfect day.(60 miles in diameter)
the entire chassis, engine and siren head rotates, 1 /1/2 rpm with the help of a turntable, weighs 3 tons, 138dB at 100 feet (178dB@ 1 foot), loudest siren ever created! manufactured in 1952-1957 by Chrysler.
this has a built in 3-stage centrifugal compressor, sending over 2,610 cubic feet of air a minute at 7psi(thunderbolt is 250CFM@6.5psi) through the chopper. very surprising, the chopper is 22.5 inch diameter, surprising eh? the air leaving the siren has the velocity of 400MPH!!! thats fast!!
