I’m able to turn into metal, specifically steel. My skin can fully turn into steel i’m also bulletproof and durable. I have super strength, and my max limit is 700 tons, though I can fly up to Mach 195. I also have super speed when running, and my top speed is Mach 195.

Am I overpowered?

Just to clarify, Mach 25 is roughly orbital flight. (The shuttle would begin its breaking turns at Mach 24, on the edge of the atmosphere where sound is the slowest.)

So, if by “overpowered” you mean “sound like someone who skipped middle school science.” Then That’s definitely a yes.

Just as a side note, do you know what happens When large meteorites crash into the atmosphere?

They explode from the pressure and extremely intense atmosphere heating. And that’s at around Mach 20… (which, is why the shuttle does the breaking turns where it’s not so bad…)

Even if you had some magical way to survive that... The air and everything around you would also be exploding. violently.

The basic math here is that the mach number is one's current velocity divided by the speed of sound- at your current conditions. Which makes it bad as a measure of "top speed" because it varies with pressure. Generally, as one ascends, the mach number increases.

For comparison, at sea level, mach 195 would be about 238,875 kph. The escape velocity of the solar system, leaving earth, is roughly is 151,200 kph.
