And the F-22 can hit mach 1.7+ without afterburner now!
This was when the F-22 was only cleared to fly at 50,000ft. (15,242m). Since then the F-22 has now been cleared to fly at 65,000ft (19,817m) and higher in the future with upgrades!
The altitude advantage increases the range of the F-22's weapons while cutting by forty percent or more the range of the opponents weapons.

"I remember one mission where I ended up solo 1 vs. 6 with F-16's and I shot them all and they never saw me. Yes it's really that good." -Mike "Dozer" Shower (F-22 pilot)
