An aircraft with reduced environmental impact includes two turboprop engines mounted on the back of the aircraft at the rear thereof, and one acoustic masking device per turboprop engine. The acoustic masking device includes a masking element, such as a flap, which can move between a position in which it is retracted into the wing, and a position in which it is extended toward the rear of the wing. In the extended position, the flap intercepts the noise area generated toward the front by the turboprop engine, so as to reduce the perception of noise on the ground.
