Though I'm not sure what even distinguishes an 'attack' aircraft carrier from any other aircraft carrier and that designation was eventually merged back in with CV. CVA (Attack Aircraft Carrier) also got name as Supercarrier. This hull classification only applies to really heavy carriers (70k tons and above).
