The F15 is the king fighter jet when it comes to drag racing. Only two jets can accelerate going straight up the F15 and the F16. Of course Navy jets use a catapult to accelerate off of an aircraft carrier. The rpm's of an f100 jet engine are more like 9,000 not 160,000. The jet fuel starter does turn 165,000 rpms. The f100's power comes from thrust not rpm, a five stage augmentor or (afterburner) does the job well especially with cool fan air coming in from around the core engine.
