When I create a data set, I always have a "Notes" tag group, with the "accrued" box checked in ABCreator. So, just assign your basic Platoon the "Platoon" tag in its entry in the .dat file.

In the option that makes them bombers, add an Eval script with:

var result as string
result = this.unit.assign[Notes.Bomber]

I made the set of files called "Aeronautica Imperialis" - there are some examples of accrued tags in that - the Accrued Notes group is used to mark options that are 1/roster, the Composition group is accrued because there are a few child units (Tau Air Cadre - Tiger Shark AX-2-2 and its children) that still need to be counted towards the roster and the transport stat is accrued because there are some scenarios where every point of troops landed is worth Victory Points, and you'll want to know how many points of troops you're bringing in to the battle when you're creating your roster.
