The recent interest in the development of supersonic transport raises concerns about an increase in community noise around airports. As noise certification standards for supersonic transport other than Concorde have not yet been developed by the International Civil Aviation Organization, there is a need for a physics-based scaling rule for supersonic transport takeoff noise performance. Assuming supersonic transport takeoff noise levels are dominated by the engine mixed jet velocity and the aircraft-to-microphone propagation distance, this paper presents a reduced-order model for supersonic transport takeoff noise levels as a function of four scaling groups: cruise Mach number, takeoff aerodynamic efficiency, takeoff speed, and number of installed engines. This paper finds that, as cruise Mach number increases, supersonic transport takeoff noise levels increase while their thrust cutback noise reduction potential decreases. Assuming constant aerodynamic efficiency, takeoff speed, and number of installed engines, the takeoff noise levels and noise reduction potential of a Mach 2.2 aircraft are found to be 15.3    dB higher and 19.2    dB less compared to a Mach 1.4 aircraft, respectively. This scaling rule can potentially yield a simple guideline for estimating an approximate noise limit for supersonic transport, depending on their cruise Mach number.
