What seems so be missing from this dicussion is no one said "manned supersonic
flight."
The first unmanned supersonic flights were some types of bullets fired in the
late 1800s. As far as flying machines being super sonic the Nazi A-4 did it
before the Me262 even flew.

No, the first manmade supersonic flight was the tip of a whip, at some
time buried in the sands of history.
