How much does it cost to replace?
Most of these cannot be replaced. They were already short on parts beforehand.
So what is the expected monetary-equivalent loss taken?
Well, the A-50 and the TU-22 M3 mentioned in the article cost around 300-400 million USD each but it's not known yet how many of each type have been damaged and to what extent. Inflicting monetary damage is not as much of a priority compared to crippling Russia's ability to continue their air assaults.
