Sounds snatched from "Space: 1999" used in "Star Fleet"

I started taking notice of this fact a bit ago. It seems that the non-Japanese oriented sound effects in "Star Fleet"'s English dub were taken straight from episodes of "Space: 1999". This is really shocking and I must be the first person to have taken note of this. It's really ironic considering the Anderson inspiration behind "Star Fleet"

Here's my evidence

"An Attack Beyond Tears" - The explosion sounds for the Volcano eruption were taken straight off the "Space: 1999" episode: "The Metamorph" from Season 2. During these explosions you can even still hear the Eagle taking off.

"A New Beginning for the Galaxy" - The metallic clashing sounds heard when the Skull crewmember next to Lamia gets blown up is from the episode "Space Warp" when a mutated Maya tries to launch an Eagle and it ends up flipping it over. There are the same explosions in the same place, and not to mention the last explosion was cut in "Star Fleet" because in "Space: 1999", music started there.

Anyone whose watched "Star Fleet" take notice of the similarities here?

I myself want to find that Jet diving sound from the first episode of "Star Fleet" after X-Bomber is shot down. Anyone know if it's ever been heard in "Space: 1999". Can only find a fraction of this sound in the clear in "Star Fleet".

I noticed that nearly all the control panel fx and some of the explosions where brought over. Same thing happens in Thunderbirds 2086, id presume the English version didn't have the full SFX track or decided to augment it themselves.

Got quite a surprise while watching "The X from outer Space" The space craft in it sounds just like TB2.

Yeah, but as for TB2086 that ones not terribly surprising since the series was edited like it was a "Thunderbirds" spin-off in English. Those explosions really aren't unique to "Space: 1999", I've heard them in "Star Maidens" and "TUGS" as well. Although "Star Maidens" may have done the same. I started figuring the explosions in the series were pre edited at some point since they're almost always in the same order.

I noticed the 1999 sound effects in Star Fleet and (I think) Star Maidens, I assumed they were taken from a sound effects library - don't know if anyone can confirm this?
