I guess it would depend on what you mean by "involved in combat"
The U2511 made one war patrol but did not sink any ships. But it did sneak up on a British Cruiser without being detected (Pretty interesting story)
The U3008 kinda sorta made a tiny patrol but went back into port before the cook had a chance to ask the Kaluen about the soup
Now if "involved in combat" means being attacked by the enemy, then you are most correct. By the time the Type XXI came about, the war was over (Literally in the case of the U-3008)
