To make the matter more intricate, from Washington-1922 CA stands for A-cruiser, i.e. 10.000 ton and 8" guns, which is so-called heavy cruiser, while CB was from London-1930 for B-cruiser, i.e. 6" guns with no dimentions limit, which eventually became light cruiser (CL) in USN slang, as CB, you are right Pags, went for a cruiser, battle (Alaska-class). Why not to recognize the first C in CV for "carrier"?
