So far - to rescue all three F-15E and A-10 crew members, the US Air Force has destroyed two C-130 Hercules and damaged two search and rescue UH-60 Blackhawks, and sent more aircraft to Iran to rescue the crews of the destroyed planes. It's all going great.

It's a bit hard to keep tabs on this, but I do believe American aircraft losses in the Iran war are currently higher than the combined Ukrainian and Russian aircraft losses in the Ukraine war. Last week only, obviously.

Operation Epstein Fury has continued to avoid loss of stealth bombers and marine landing ships. So far.

As a reminder: the reason I'm being heavily sarcastic about the success of rescuing pilots from hostile territory is that they were there to commit war crimes in an illegal war. Doesn't change just because the other hostile party is also awful.
