Alternatively, they could do it much like they do now with the bombers; i.e., it's just something unique about the default weapon option of the plane. The bombers don't have regular missles, but modified bombs. The XFA-27 would instead just be able to fire more std. missles. Or, they could just do the extra work of modifying the design of the equipped plane. The F-117A doesn't have a gun, but they modified its design in-game since forever ago to show that slotted door thing that opens when you fire. Given that no part upgrades thus far effects any plane at this level, it's more likely that they'll either make it Sp. weapon like TheTLMguy suggested, or it will be unique to the XFA-27, like Black Bee One suggests (akin to the likelihood that not every plane is going to get a Razgriz paint scheme or variant).
