I see Ukraine has announced a new 225 will rise from the ashes left by the Russian shelling.

There was a programme on BBC1 a few nights ago, where they visited Hostomel. It appears to have been quite recent, and what was apparent was that a lot of clean-up work had taken place. I believe there is a determination by the people at Antonov to put another beast into the air, but assuming funding becomes available (EBRD?*), I imagine they will have to wait until the current unpleasantness is over before they can begin rebuilding.
