I would assume, looking at but with no military background, that those are expensive to replace. Perhaps not readily replaceable under existing sanctions effects.

The picture (one which this article would seemingly have one believe is the aircraft in the title) is of a downed Russian cruise missile [picture captioned: “A Russian cruise missile shot down by Ukrainian Air Defence Forces is seen in the backyard of a private house, amid Russia’s attack on Ukraine, in Kyiv region, Ukraine May 18, 2023. (Reuters)”]

Are there any links to pictures of the other two aircraft wreckage from the claimed shoot down? It is not clearly apparent what happened with the night time video linked and all the decoy flare popping going on.
