Rudel also sunk a battleship [in Lake Ilmen] and was the only holder of the highest degree of the Knight's Cross with swords, oak leaves and diamonds. He flew Me 262s at the end of the war.

I think you are mistaken. Rudel flew Stukas until the very end. Adolph Galland flew ME-262's at the war's end.
