Actually, it does not go without saying.
The SR-71 is not capable of sustained cruising at supersonic speeds without afterburners like the Concord or the Tu-144. SR-71 cruises with its burners lit. In fact, SR-71's engines are designed to run in the afterburner mode continuously, and rarely if ever in the dry thrust mode.
