F-22s and Sr-71s. F-14s and F-15's too.

F-14's. . .no. F-14's are quick, but not that quick, with their old engines and all.
Operationally, all modern fighters have max speeds about the same. The F-15, F-16, F-18, they all are about the same. The question is max speed when configured for a mission with all that stuff hanging off the jet causing parasitic drag. And altitude as well.
At any rate, I'd take the F-15 to be the quickest, overall.
