I rather doubt that either the F-22 or T-50 will be supercruising at Mach 2. We have to look at the context of what Mikhailov said. I found another version of the interview (source: flanker), and I'll bold the part I think is important.Judging from this, I would have to say that he is talking in the context of max speed, not supercruise. F-22 won't be cruising Mach 2 either. Max official supercruise figure I've seen is Mach 1.78 in a Aviation Week press release, and as I recall, this was when LM really wanted to secure more orders for the aircraft before it got capped.
