Re: Me 262 should have been used as a bomber?

Yes Arcona was sunk by rockets, but Brtish used solid head rockets in their anti-shipping strikes. Aimed little low to hit hull below waterline to punch holes. IIRC Soviet rockets were short stubby sort ones and I'm not sure were they enough accurate and did they have suitable underwater traectory for such a tactic and anyway IIRC they usually had HE warhead.
