I do not have any record of the A series ever being used as bombers. The landing skids would have prevented this. I am sure that the only operational use of the A series was with 1./VVB OKL (SK Götz) as recon over the Normandy front and southern England. But as you note all without armament. The only air-to-air contact for the A series was I think Erich Sommer waving at a passing Mosquito pilot on a recon mission in the other direction.
