Personally, I think any R-390's or related equipment
headed for China should be sent in mangled pieces or
booted out the door of a US Navy plane at high
altitude!!

How much damage would an R-390 do to a skyscraper?

Or maybe drop it on Afghanistan,....... but, no, the
Chinese aren't REALLY there, are they?

Preferrably in near proximity to any
Communist/Socialist dirtbags running the gov't there.

Um,....... can someone explain to me just where the
"vast untapped market" is over there?  My little mind
can't seem to comprehend how the workers in the
factories are going to afford houses much less
anything else.  And since its a wonderland of forced
equality EVERYONE is in the same boat so there can't
be any "rich" people who can afford an R-390 or even a
place to put one, much less to actually plug it in. 
That would be draining more than one's fair share of
the rare and hard to produce electric power that could
have been more efficiently used to kill evil
capitalist round eyes.

Or did I miss one of the more subtle nuances of the
"world's factory"?
