According to Spick, Rademacher is credited with 126 aerial victories, 90 of which claimed over the Eastern Front and 36 in the western theatre of operations, including 10 heavy bombers. According to Obermaier, he is credited with 97 aerial victories, 76 of which claimed over the Eastern Front, including 21 Il-2s and 7 Pe-2s. He also claimed 23 further victories on the Eastern Front without witnesses supporting his claim. Matthews and Foreman, authors of "Luftwaffe Aces — Biographies and Victory Claims", researched the German Federal Archives and state that he claimed at least 93 aerial victories, at least 77 of which claimed on the Eastern Front and 16 on Western Front, including over 11 four-engined bombers, plus further nine unconfirmed claims. He claimed eleven victories flying the Me 262. The claim that he is attributed with 126 aerial victories cannot be verified through the archives.
