I would think scrapped as they were replaced by 2 Foxtrot and 1 Kilo. At most, the one decomissioned in 1988 could have survived with the other providing spares.
Also to note, 50 Whiskey remained on soviet navy list in 1990 with 22 in the Baltic, 14 in the Black Sea, 10 in the Pacific and 4 in the North Fleet. By 1991 only 11 remained. I wander if these would have been recommissioned for secondary missions. Whiskey could carry 22mines in place of the torpedoes.
