Eventually he reached the rank of colonel in the reserve.[3]
From 1959/60 he studied history , political science and sports at the University in Tübingen. In 1963 he also began studying law. In 1964 he moved to the University of Freiburg. In 1966 he passed the first state law examination and in 1967 he completed his legal clerkship in the Higher Regional Court district of Stuttgart. During his legal traineeship, he began studying economics, which he completed in 1970 with a degree in economics from the University of Regensburg.

The institute, which was later based in Munich, dealt with foreign and security policy as well as internal security. In 1974 he became head of the foreign and security policy research department at the social science institute of the Konrad Adenauer Foundation. From 1978 to 1982 he was head of the same institute. As head of the institute, Rühle acted as an advisor to Manfred Wörner, chairman of the Defense Committee of the German Bundestag, on security policy issues.[5] Nevertheless, he is not assigned to the closest discussion group around Chancellor Helmut Kohl's confidante Horst Teltschik, at the time deputy head of the Federal Chancellery.[6]

From October 1989 until early retirement in December 1995, he was General Manager of the NATO Multi-Role Combat Aircraft Development and Production Management Agency (NAMMA) in Munich, succeeding Major General Hartmut Gülzow-Control, a center for the development and production of the German-British-Italian multi-role fighter aircraft Tornado.[9] This was combined with the organization responsible for the Eurofighter to form the NATO management agency NETMA.

Brigadier general Ali-Reza Asgari, who once commanded Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, disappeared on December 9, 2006, from his hotel room in Istanbul, Turkey. Little more than a year later, Hans Rühle, former Director of Policy Planning in the German Ministry of Defense, wrote in Swiss newspaper Neue Zuercher Zeitung that Asgari was in Western hands and that "information was obtained" from him.[1]
On March 19, 2009, Hans Rühle, former chief of the planning staff of the German Defense Ministry, wrote in the Swiss daily Neue Zürcher Zeitung that Iran was financing a Syrian nuclear reactor. Rühle did not identify the sources of his information. He wrote that U.S. intelligence had detected North Korean ship deliveries of construction supplies to Syria that started in 2002, and that the construction was spotted by American satellites in 2003, who detected nothing unusual, partly because the Syrians had banned radio and telephones from the site and handled communications solely by messengers.[1]
