Flying above the speed of sound without using afterburners is referred to as supercruise, and it is something the Concorde was capable of doing.

There aren't a lot of supercruise aircraft out there. The F22, for instance, can supercruise effectively, but the F35 cannot.

True, but in defense of the F-35 it also can't fly very far
