The Soviet Union's impractically loud answer to this project was the TU-144.  This project was almost derailed by the 1971 bankruptcy of Rolls Royce.  A special (*) drooping nose was developed for this project in order to increase visibility without decreasing performance.  EPA chief Russell Train helped tank an American answer to this project over concerns about the ozone layer.  A crash involving one of these things in 2000 was partially due to a piece of debris left behind from a DC-10.  These things were jointly operated by AÃ©rospatiale and the British Aircraft Corporation and could travel from JFK to Paris in under 4 hours.  For 10 points, name these supersonic jets.
