More A-20 variants are needed, period. It was one of the most ubiquitous planes of the war, serving with multiple air forces from 1940-45 (and beyond) on all fronts.

The DB-7 would be an excellent choice for an early war French bomber since it saw service in North Africa as well as France.

The DB-7A/Boston II would be a good choice for a mid-war British medium bomber (although the choice of British light and medium bomber types is huge).

Havoc I would be a good choice for an early British night fighter.

The DB-7C/Boston III was used by the Australians, British and the Soviets.

Lend-Lease A-20C were fitted with Soviet guns, ordinance and turrets.
