Very odd the way you put this....almost like you're not familiar with the F-15.

Mach is a function of local air density and temperature. What Altitude were you doing 2.1 at where the equivalent is 1598.53 mph? Where did you read 1598.53 mph (hard to do as all aircraft function in Nautical miles per hour, or knots, and no airspeed indicator goes that high, and no airspeed indicator has 2 decimal places)
