Somewhat irrelevantly, this sound is also a ringtone on the iPhone.Notably, the sound used in 24 during a CTU Red Alert lockdown.There's a particular stock sound that is used everywhere. Granted, the modern version doesn't actually sound as urgent as the classic, so definitely a case of Artistic License. but nearly every Navy movie or TV show made still uses the classic klaxon. It should be noted that for decades US Navy warship's use more of a muted beep sound for General Quarters and have since at least the 70s.It also appears in pitched-up form when the Rebels are attacking the Death Star in A New Hope, and in the Rogue One trailer. This is based on the steam horn of a WWII Royal Navy destroyer. Another red alert klaxon is the one used in the Star Wars films, notably when the two Star Destroyers are passing each other in The Empire Strikes Back, and when Darth Vader's shuttle is approaching the Death Star II at the beginning of Return of the Jedi.
