@boundsound42 ............... NO I think its more the other way round and the game makers STOLE it from the original recording.........I've had this recording and still have on a cassette from the late 70's, just a few years before the release of Company Of Heroes!!

That sound is enough to chill you to the bone. But hearing it cut off like that would turn my blood to ice. I couldn't imagine what it would be like to hear that every day.

@AbsoluteMonarchisOf course, they do it to celebrate the KKK lynching niggers in White Alabama or the British massacre Indians.

@douro20 Have you seen the movie 'Triple Cross'( I think), about the most amazing and successful double agent--a London criminal, who kidded the Nazis that he was spying for them-- he used to fake all the reports of the V1 & V2 landings, making the nazis fix the range so that many missiles landed in the country fields, he told them they were miles out of range. He must have saved many lives. Afterwards the cops wiped his criminal records clean--how generous, how bloody British, the assoles.

Many posting here have said how terrifying the sound of the V1 is. Add to this the strange and ugly shape of this thing, then try and imagine the sychological impact on a people who thought the long aerial war on Britains cities had been over for a couple years apart from stray single visits. Today the worlds governments pedal fear of the odd terrorist bomb risk. Imagine how thousands of huge bombs falling nightly for hours on end over several years must have been like. I doubt WE could survive.

I have a R/C plane with a pulse jet..They are loud as fuck!! I can feel the ground shake within 15 feet from it. Lots of fun though! :)

This counter triggered the arming of the warhead after about 60 km When the count reached zero, two detonating bolts were fired. Two spoilers on the elevator were released, the linkage between the elevator and servo was jammed and a guillotine device cut off the control hoses to the rudder servo. These actions put the V-1 into a steep dive. While this was originally intended to be a power dive, in practice the dive caused the fuel flow to cease, which stopped the engine.-Wikipedia

@newforestroadwarrior There was no fuel cutoff device, that's not how it worked. Lego0931 has it right - engine cutoff was a secondary effect. The counter caused the elevators to deflect downward into a dive and locked the rudder, Fuel flow was interrupted by the resulting G forces and low fuel level. But cutting the engine off was not important, it just happened regularly. Apparently not all of them cut out but that was rare.
