Super Mysterie not supersonic?

Hi guys.

There’s this plane called SMB2. It is “advertised” as supersonic, but does not reach supersonic speed most of the times, even with light load.

According to dassault webpage, this plane can reach supersonic speed without the use of afterburner, though it’s probably in a dive.

The Super Mystère B2 01 made its 40-minute maiden flight at Melun-Villaroche on May 15, 1956, piloted by Gérard Muselli ; it broke the sound barrier without using its after-burner.

According to Wikipedia, which isn’t a technical source, but still reference. Says it can reach supersonic in level flight

The Super Mystère represents the final step in evolution, which began with the Dassault Ouragan and progressed through the Mystère II/III and Mystère IV. While earlier Mystère variants could attain supersonic speeds only in a dive, the Super Mystère could exceed the speed of sound in level flight. This was achieved thanks to the new thin wing with 45° of sweep (compared with 41° of sweep in the Mystère IV and only 33° in Mystère II) and the use of an afterburner-equipped turbojet engine.

I’m not French, so I can’t read technical documents, but can any experts able to tell me of the plane is performing properly in game, and that “supersonic” is just “technically possible but not feasible”?

It’s an early supersonic, those could do it feasibly and reliably, just not practically
As far as I’m aware Super Mystere has reports floating around that it is underperforming, but in what metrics and degrees, I don’t know

isnt the super mystere that one plane that loses all of its speed and thrust in a turn
