Public-domain U.S. Government recording, downloaded from the official public player.
The appearance of U.S. Department of War (DoW) visual information does not imply
or constitute DoW endorsement.
Processing: stereo 48 kHz / 192 kbps MP3, fixed +3 dB gain, final 0.3 s fade only.
The initial recorded explosion transient is retained, not faded or synthesized.
The incoming-shell whistle is synthesized at runtime; it is a dramatic warning,
not a claim of a field-recorded projectile or an exact physical simulation.
