I don't know about "ever", but someone recently told me bald eagles are the fastest flyers on Earth; even faster than any military jet.

Their baldness makes them extra aerodynamic.

Maybe we should try balding our military jets. Good call.

That's why the military had never allowed long hair or beards.

No but Ive seen them in the wild. Sure they are big ass majestic predators. But they ain't that graceful or fast.
