There might be some coming up. The concept I am looking into
should hit 25/1 fairly easily with Isp ~1,000 or so. Turbine and
rocket based combined cycle. With real engineers using CFD
and proper combustion codes and professionally designed
structure, considerably more.

Not real life yet. Useless for supersonic even if successful.
Possibly useful for winged boosters for crossrange and some
altitude.
