Modern Attack and Fighter missions are about the ordinance the aircraft carries and now the form factor of the ordinance has advanced to the point that basically any fighter can carry advanced AGM without sacrificing performance when it is loaded out with air-to-air missions in mind, thus attack roles are now available to fighters with just a change of the missile they carry. This is good because you can have more economy of scale by just operating one airframe instead of 2

The distinction is only meaningful when the mission profiles demand a significant difference in airframes and loadout.
In WW2, a wildcat and a dauntless wouldnโt be best used in switched roles, but today, ordnance and avionics change the mission profile, so any airframe that can carry both can do the mission. And the aircraft can be designed for speed, range and agility more independently.

The difference used to be much more obvious in the old days, before rockets and guidance, when everything was a dumb bomb or a hunk of flying lead. The only "targeting" was done by pointing the whole plane at the target.
You had to get up close and personal to shoot down an enemy plane, cruise low, slow, and steady to drop a torpedo into the water, or dive at a near vertical drop to aim your bomb. These all made for very obviously different flight requirements. Today, nearly everything is a rocket-powered guided munition, so the differences aren't as obvious.

Soon we'll see bombers like the B-21 become fighter-bomber-attack aircraft. The USAF is looking into plans to integrate the future AIM 260 JATM missile on it, guided by f35s. The B-21 will then be able to fire missiles, do heavy bombing, and provide close air support, like the f35 but even slower, carry more mutations and heavy bombing capability.

An F-35 pilot gets more work done in a mission than my whole Department in a month
