Supersonic aircraft are those that can exceed the sound barrier. I.e. Concorde was capable of this. Any craft that can exceed 1 to 5 times the speed of sound falls in this category.

Why is it not noisy traveling at supersonic speeds?
Untrue. Supersonic aircraft are very noisy, the only indication that the aircraft passes through the sound barrier is a slight increase in acceleration, the Mach meter number, and an announcement by the pilot.
