Du Pont, the major manufacturer of CFCs, gave their own products the brand name Freons, and developed a labeling system that indicates, to the cognoscenti, how many atoms of each kind are present in a particular type of Freon. This system is now widely used for all CFCs; a shorthand naming system has evolved in which the two most commonly used CFCs are known as F-11 and F-12 - their full chemical names are trichlorofluoromethane (CC13F) and dichlorofluoromethane (CC12F2). 1, record 6, English, - shorthand%20naming%20system

[...] les armées américaines disposent déjà de leur propre dispositif d'aérolargage de précision, baptisé Jpads pour «Joint Precision Air Drop System». [...] Le ParaLander d'EADS se compose d'un boîtier électronique de guidage fixé au sommet de la charge à larguer, et qui agit directement sur les suspentes pour placer l'ensemble sur la trajectoire de descente désirée. Les coordonnées GPS [Global Positioning System] du lieu d'impact sont chargées dans le boîtier de guidage par l'intermédiaire d'une liaison sans fil entre le ParaLander et un ordinateur portable, sur lequel est installé le logiciel de planification de missions. Si le système peut fonctionner de manière complètement autonome, il reste toutefois possible de désactiver le guidage automatique pour piloter à distance le ParaLander après largage. À l'atterrissage, un altimètre laser déclenche automatiquement une traction équilibrée sur les suspentes, réduisant la vitesse de descente de 7 m/s à 2,5 m/s et permettant ainsi d'éviter un renversement de la charge au toucher. 1, record 9, French, - dispositif%20d%27a%C3%A9rolargage%20de%20pr%C3%A9cision
