[R-390] What's the latest military manual discussing R-390A?

Hi

They were still buying massive numbers of spares for these radios in the mid 1980’s. I suspect you can find them in training courses at least through that era.

It mostly talks about silicon receivers, like the R-1051, but there is a half-page on the R-390A with an image of the front panel. Clearly, they thought a radio man in 1971 needed to know about these receivers, implying that they thought you might run into them in the course of your service.
