How many sorties did the B-25 fly?
How many sorties did the A-26 fly?
The one with the most sorties should be added first.

If considering a perkable bomber for buff drivers to spend buff perk points on other than the Arado, the A-26 is a good choice. Other than the B-29, which we won't see, and some German bombers with guided munitions, which we won't see, perkable bombers are very few and far between.
If simply adding another bomber to the plane set, a plane set that already consists of:
American: 26 planes including 6 CV-launched, medium, and heavy bombers as well as 6 vehicles.
British: 15 planes including 2 bombers.
German: 18 planes including 3 bombers and additional 3 vehicles.
Russian: 5 planes including 1 attack plane and additional 1 vehicle.
Japanese: 8 planes including 3 bomber/attack craft.
Italians: 2 planes.
There are many other notable planes that can be added to even up the planeset and support the SEA events, ToD, as well as the EW and MW arenas before the addition of yet another American plane.
The He-188, Petlyakov Pe-2, Bristol Beaufighter, Handley Page Halifax, Nakajima Ki 43 Hayabusa, Ilyushin Il-4 or Il-10, Betty bomber. There are SEA and AvA (and possibly ToD) reasons to bring some of them in, among other planes that could be considered, which also benefit the few pilots that fly EW and MW arenas.
If looking to add a perk ride, I vote Invader. If just looking to add to planeset; I vote add to other countries first to even things out a bit.
