Most of the remaining Whiskey were training stations while many others had been modified to some extend.
Mo,

After an exhausting three minutes of research, I am unable to determine what happened to the Whiskey subs in Russia. For the sake of argument I'll agree with you, but that doesn't invalidate my point. For example, even if the Soviets sold Poland the superior Kilo class sub the Poles could have still kept one of their Whiskeys for training purposes (or simply been given another one by the Soviets). By 2000 all other operational subs are gone, and all that remains is a single Whiskey sub formerly used for training.
