Assuming roughly half the fleet is parked, those aircraft can be cannibalized to keep the others flying for quite a while before the standard wear items start to run short. If Russia is smart (big if, as demonstrated by their performance to date in Ukrain), they're currently working on domestic production of the more critical wear items.
The bigger question is, will it ever be viable to return all those Russian controlled aircraft to service outside Russia.
