I haven’t seen any mention of the cost to replace.

The unit cost for one of the newer America class LHAs is $3.4B to $3.8B. The estimate to repair the Bonnie Dick is $3B. Eleven of the America class originally were planned, though to date only two have been built, and one is under construction. Big chunk of the Navy’s budget for just one additional hull, though they may have to bite the bullet.
