They have some for sure. I know there's some Tupolev airliners. Then there's Antonov in Ukraine that was notable in Soviet days if they can manage to claim it back.
They probably won't be able to get parts for the Airbus ones they keep, unless they can make parts themselves.
That's globalization for you. Everything is way too connected.
Outside of the things others mentioned, there would be cost and logistics involved in returning them. I suppose something that could be worked out, but Russia has no incentive to play nice when the same things are being done to them from the other side.

Right, so if they wont be able to fix their own shit, why bother holding onto it? It'll eventually wear out and they'll be back to square one.
