 Cronquist system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The scheme is still widely used, in either the original form or in adapted versions, but many botanists are adopting the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group classification for the orders and families of flowering plants: APG II.
The Cronquist system is a scheme for the classification of flowering plants (or angiosperms).
This system was developed by Arthur Cronquist (1919-1992) in his texts An Integrated System of Classification of Flowering Plants (1981) and The Evolution and Classification of Flowering Plants (1968; 2n edition, 1988).

 Asparagales - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Angiosperm Phylogeny Group's classification system is widely used by botanists, and was updated as the APG II in 2002 to include recent findings, especially in DNA analysis.
The APG II consolidates some families, and recognizes an alternative system of fewer, larger families, in which certain smaller families can be grouped within other larger families based on close genetic affinities and still follow the 'APG system'.
In older classification systems, the families now included in the Asparagales were included in order Liliales, and some genera of which were even included in family Liliaceae.

Among the Block II systems and features are the APG-79 Active Electronically Scanned Array radar system (AESA), Advanced Crew Station, and advanced mission computers and displays.
The Block II configuration also provides enhanced interconnectivity among the aircraft's mission systems and the ability to upgrade with future technology as it matures.
With delivery of the Block II configuration, the Super Hornet enhances its capabilities for network-centric operations, a system of systems that shares information among a variety of warfighter nodes.

The APG II consolidates some families, and recognizes an alternative system of fewer, larger families, in which certain smaller families can be grouped within other larger families based on close genetic affinities and still follow the 'APG system'.
Under the new classification system one could, for example, correctly include daylilies (Hemerocallis) in family Hemerocallidaceae, or in family Xanthorrhoeaceae.

 Botanical Taxonomic Schemes
As example - in the APG scheme, the remedy Cistus canadensis (Helianthemum canadense, Rockrose) is placed in the family Malvaceae, of the Malvales, Eurosids II.
These are the systems of Arthur Cronquist, RMT Dahlgren, and the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (APG).
At first glance, the "more objective" APG system may feel more compelling in its ability to assess real phylogenetic/evolutionary relationships between plants.

 Liliopsida - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Modern systems, such as the APG and APG II systems refer to this group by the name monocots (a name for a clade).
Therefore in practice the name Liliopsida will almost surely refer to the usage as in the Cronquist system.

The AESA radar is part of the F/A-18E/F Block II upgrade, which includes integration of advanced mission computers, high speed data network, cockpit controls and displays, environmental control system upgrade and forward fuselage affordability improvements.
The AESA radar system is integrated in the F/A-18 by prime contractor, The Boeing Company, of St Louis, Mo., and built under a subcontract by Raytheon Corporation of El Segundo, Calif. The LRIP2 contract calls for production of 12 AESA AN/APG-79 radar systems.
The program expects to begin operational evaluation of the AESA radar system in early 2006, with initial operational capability later that year.

 Eriocaulales - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Eriocaulales, synonym of Xyridales, are placed by the APG II in the order Poales.
The family Xyridaceae, which under the Cronquist system was placed in the Commelinales, is sometimes included here as well, from which the whole order is sometimes called the Xyridales.
The Eriocaulales are an order of monocots, including the tiny pipewort family, Eriocaulaceae.

The Kfir 2000 uses the advanced IAI/Elta ELM-2032 multi-role radar (which is claimed to be better than the US APG-73 as fitted in the F/A-18) and a modern missionized avionics suite tailored and integrated to meet the customers requirements.
The F1A does not have the large Cyrano IVM radar and has in its place the ESD Aida II ranging radar as fitted to the Mirage V. It costs less and has slightly more range and payload.
New systems include the Elta EL/M-2032 multi-mode, pulse-Doppler fire control radar developed for the Lavi, HOTAS controls, a new El-Op HUD, MIL-STD-1553 digital databus and air data computer, radar warning receivers for 360 degree coverage, active jammers, flare and chaff dispensers and provisions for Python-3 AAMS and laser guided weapons.

 [3.0] Second-Generation Harriers
The Spaniards and Italians did want these capabilities, which would give their AV-8B+ Harrier IIs a substantially nastier bite, and in fact apparently believed when they helped fund the integration of the AN/APG-65 to the Harrier II that adding such capabilities was the specific point of the exercise.
The improved fire-control system of the GR.9 will permit use of the new Marconi "Brimstone" anti-armor missile, an advanced derivative of the US Hellfire weapon; the "Advanced Short-Range AAM (ASRAAM)", a British successor to the traditional Sidewinder AAM with "off-boresight" targeting capability and comparable to the AIM-9X; and possibly the new "Storm Shadow" cruise missile.
The GR.5 was to be fitted with an infrared camera for all-weather reconnaissance in addition to the FLIR and was designed with a chin housing for it, but this project was cancelled and the chin housing remained empty.

 AV-8B Harrier II
Equipped with the combat-proven APG-65 radar system, the newest member of the AV-8 Harrier family — the Harrier II Plus — adds a multimission capability to the vertical/short takeoff and landing features that allow Harriers to operate where other fixed-wing aircraft cannot.
Seventy-two day-attack Harrier IIs already in the fleet are being converted into the more capable Harrier II Plus aircraft with a new service life at a cost significantly lower than all-new aircraft.
The Harrier II was originally designed to provide responsive and effective close-air support for U.S. Marine Corps ground forces and to fly interdiction missions.
