Commonly accepted as the strongest tornado possible. According to Thomas Schlatter, the Fujita scale goes all the way up to F-12, which is winds the speed of sound. The article was actually written in Fune 1986 and was cited in the Jan/Feb 98 issue of the same periodical. Since before the original article was written in 1986, there has never been a documented tornado of F-6 or above, and the author states it's not likely to happen.
James R. McDonald includes a table of Fujita levels and wind speeds. F-6 and above is labled as "inconcievable damage". Wind speed are as follows (in miles per hour):
F-6 319-379
F-7 380-445
F-8 446-513
F-9 514-585
F-10 586-659
F-11 660-735
F-12 736 and above
note: The speed of sound at -3ºC is 736 miles per hour.
