Launching strikes against government targets is only one part of the big picture.
Overseas Chinese are often targets of opportunity for the people of a country. Ethnic conflict between overseas Chinese and "locals" is very common. The government won't openly support it, they just won't enforce their law. Or perhaps the government is politically weak and they don't want to go against the mob.
So when the government doesn't do anything, it's not so productive to attack their military. Instead you need precision weapons to attack the mobs that are attacking overseas Chinese.
I think in these cases, you need something FAST that can carry enough munitions. The best bet would be having something similar to the Tu-195 Blackjack bomber on 24hr standby somewhere in Southern China (
). If some kind of ethnic conflict flares up and the government is not doing anything about it, you get intelligence from the ground about which targets to strike (just ask the overseas Chinese population where the mobs are gathering) and then drop some bombs.
