Interestingly enough the siren was nicknamed "the horns of Jericho" by Allied troops. Not sure whether anyone has posted this fact yet...

Does anyone know where I could possibly get a siren that sounded like the Stuka?

...I want to strap one to my car. An electric motor and a switch on the dash. Any ideas where I could find such a piece?

No, I don't think you will find one. I don't think anyone makes them.

May not be able to get a siren for your car but there's this. Check the videos, they're hilarious!
