Is the virgina class that Sea Wolf they came out with years ago to replace the LA Class?

No. The Sea Wolf is a separate class. I believe that we only built 3 of them before the Navy canceled them. The Virginia's are supposed to be more affordable.

That's quite a bow wake. Must be one heck of a tug pulling the ship. Too bad the picture couldn't have included the tug.
