Even the Virginia is a downgrade from the Seawolf class, and only 2 of those were built before the end of the cold war killed the program. Americans are very conservative for instance in weapons design, the russians love to experiment just have a look at their extensive arsenal.
We built 3 Seawolfs, USS Jimmy Carter SSN-23 was the 3rd.
