well, the first thing i'll post for simplerockets 2, my first try at a supersonic plane in this game, and it went quite well!, it can maintain mach 2.0 without afterburners and have a max altitude of +18km

now the technical stuff:
Takeoff should be done at about 60-75% throttle, as the afterburner applies some torque and makes controls a bit harder, landing speed is about 75ms.
Afterburner activates at 95% throttle, and it should be turned off during cruise for optimal fuel economy,
To accelerate to mach 2.0, you need to get throttle all the way to 100%, after you get past mach 2.0, get the throttle back to 94% and it'll hold at mach 2.0, though, when using full afterburner, you can get much faster, not reccomended as it can overheat the airplane, and it spends a lot of fuel
AG1 toggles the landing gear
AG2 toggles the windshield
slider 1 controls the nose angle
slider 2 controls the airbrakes, which should be set at 75%-100% during landing/flaring

But alas, hope you have a nice flight with this thing, have a good day.
