Only if it is perked.

Lets not have the historically significant version made extinct in the game simply because some people want to fly an attack aircraft as a fighter.

Welll...should Cobia have a load out of only .303s to start with, and perk the .50s for him? Last thing he needs is some 20mike mikes.

Just say'n...

No.  He should use the historically significant version and if he wants to misuse it, flying it far, far outside of its allowed flight envelope, as a fighter that is his prerogative.

If the quad 20mm option were added in an uncontrolled manner the quad .50 A-20G would become all but extinct in the game, despite the fact that 90% of A-20Gs were armed with only .50s.

Exactly.  It would be a nice option for the A-20G, if it could be added in a way that didn't render the vastly more common .50 armed A-20G nigh useless and nigh extinct in the game.

Another example that should either be a perked loadout or, if attached to a higher performing Ki-84-Ib, perked about 10 points.

Cobia,

How about getting to this point in the game first?

Since we're on the topic of shameless wishlist plugs - I'd rather have a moderatley perked F7F or other new aircraft than a perked dub of one already in the game.... but that might be just me.

I'd rather have planes that fought in WW2 be added.

Make it a separate plane, give it the 20mm nose guns or fuselage guns (of which plenty of A-20s and P-70s had and used to great effect), and remove the ord options.

Boom.

     The F4U-C is perked.  But I believe 90%(ish?) F4U's didn't have cannon armament. So? That's why's it's perked. It wasnt historically significant, and I suspect most pilots in AH fly that outside its intended role as an attack version rather than the fighter they use it as.  I do not see why the A20 would be different?  I may be incorrect but I think perks have to do with gameplay balance to limit certain aircraft from dominating the game.  If I'm correct I see it being added with the new aircraft model when it eventually happens.  Following the trend of HTC updating the aircraft model as well as adding additional versions of the plane. eg. the Zero, P40, Ju87, Hurricane.
