Foxbat/MiG 25 was another classic aircraft -
For pure speed, they notched 1,852 mph. They could climb to 98,425 feet in four minutes and 3.86 seconds and ultimately reached an absolute altitude record of 123,520 feet.

If you really want to cheat with the starfighter, you need to be using the ZEL version of it.
If you could choose, pick a Lightning instead :) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_Electric_Lightning#Cli...
Back to the OP topic, the Arrow's thrust to weight ratio meant that it was theoretically the first aircraft capable of accelerating directly upwards in an arc immediately after reaching the end of the runway. Hot stuff.
now that's a 0-60 time damn
edit: it's cheating but the Starfighter with a JATO had an insane climb rate too
