The Best German Pilots Hans-Ulrich Rudel - Stuka Ace

Although he shot down only 9 enemy planes, Hans-Ulrich Rudel was definitely one of the greatest German combat pilots. However, he is not as widely-known as Erich Hartmann or Adolf Galland, most likely because he was not a fighter pilot but a “Stuka” dive bomber pilot.
German Field Marshall Ferdinand Schörner famously claimed that, “Rudel alone is worth an entire division!”
Rudel’s statistics are breath-taking and his military career was unique. He spent approximately 6000 hours in the air. One day, he flew astonishing number of 17 sorties!
