At extreme speeds (Mach 3+), jet engines like the J58 on the SR-71 Blackbird transition from turbojet to ramjet operation, where most air bypasses the core and compression occurs through pure speed, making the engine more efficient as velocity increases.

The Engine that becomes a Ramjet | Mach 3.2 Physics #aerospace
Added:At Mach 3, this engine stops acting like a normal jet. The SR-71 compresses air using pure speed. At lower speeds, it behaves like a turbojet, but at extreme speed, most air flow bypasses the core completely. Now, the engine behaves almost like a ramjet. The faster it flew, the more efficient it became.
