The perforated dive brakes seem to have shown up on the A-17s but only on bottom.
That is the lower flaps have perforations but the there are no movable upper surfaces.
The A-17 used a different attack profile.
It was intended for low altitude strafing and the dispensing of a large number of small bombs (twenty 30lb bombs from internal compartments)
Larger bombs like 100lb bombs were carried outside.
