Update: The same incredible loud crunching sound also plays when reapers unload from bunkers. I think there's an extra ActorSound being created on the Reaper's actor being created or spawned in.
The new sound is present in vanilla NCO (it's not in vanilla WoL), but on checking the files I've still noticed a couple of differences. The AP sound is based on the HH_Reaper_Land
sound, while the vanilla reaper uses the Reaper_Land
sound. Their SoundData entries are subtly different:

Volumes are the same, but note the different parents, categories, play delays, and pitch values,
What happened?
Reapers landing after a jump has a very loud crunching or landing on stacked cardboard kind of sound that overpowers the rest of the jump-jet sound. Noticed on Devil's Playground over several playthroughs, last 2023-12-26. This is new behaviour with the combined campaign.
What were the expected results?
To have the old reaper jump jet landing sound, or at least to have the sound be balanced to not overpower other sounds.
