Tie-Bomber: 850 km/h Vs SR-71A Blackbird:3529 km/h
Tie-Fighter:1200 Km/h Vs Mikojan MiG-25 :3350 km/h
Who win?

It don't matter
None of this matters

TIEs really aren't made for atmospheric operation, as they'd need shields to reach high speeds. Shielded fighters have similar LISTED speeds, but those are based on how much drag force the structure can tolerate - with shields they can go much faster.

Bad taste won after I rekt your mom's ass last night. Good God, fuck me those were some really loud porker noises when she came.

bump yo'self fool, bump yo'self
Considering Blackbird isn't even a combat plane...

1 - SR71 top speed and ceiling are still classified, but believed to be at the limits of physics (believed to be somewhere north of 4500KM/h)
2 - The SR71 is NOT a combat aircraft, and arguably not even a warplane (camera and sensors only)
3 - A10, because brrraaappp!
The TIE Fighter can accelerate at 4,100 G though.

/Someone/ never played Rogue Squadron

SR-71s are recon jets, not bombers or fighter craft, so I'm not sure what the point of comparing it is.

not like it cant be experimented with

that would require more precise tools and R&D. Most likely would be the technologically advanced aircraft to date and there would be like what 3 of them? They'd be unproven.
except tie-bombers run off of solar panels and don't fall out of the sky when they run out of fuel
tfw too much tie-fighter-for-dos

The Blackbird's speed was mostly limited by heat in the engine and across the canopy and fuselage. At Mach 3.2 the engines were already basically operating like ramjets, so pushing it faster for short periods would be easy. Considering none of them were ever shot down it seems likely they could fly above Mach 4 if it was necessary.

They can fly in the atmosphere but they can't maneuver like they can in space.
Intercepters do better in the atmosphere.
