Hearts of Iron IV is a grand strategy game released by Paradox Interactive in 2016, set during the Second World War. Its convoy system handles overseas movement of troops, equipment and resources, and the transport sound became familiar through thousands of hours of campaigns and multiplayer sessions. As HOI4 clips spread on YouTube, Twitch and Discord, players began lifting the cue for edits outside the game, using it whenever an invasion, evacuation or supply run needed a recognisable strategy game stamp of approval.

The convoy transport sound effect from Hearts of Iron IV, used in HOI4 edits, strategy memes and videos to signal ships moving troops and supplies overseas.
This is the short convoy transport cue from Hearts of Iron IV, the click and confirmation sound heard when naval convoys are assigned to move divisions and resources across the sea. It is clean, mechanical and instantly recognisable to strategy players, with a brief interface tone that feels official and logistical rather than dramatic. In edits it works as a punchline for any plan involving shipping, invasion or supply, marking the moment an order is given and an army is suddenly on its way overseas to fight.
