Updated sections to indicate specification change to a "performance based" specification.  This change affects the specification number (ie., MIL-C-83513 becomes MIL-PRF-83513).

Military specification was amended to change the wire type provided with connectors that are supplied with wire pigtails.  The change affects wire types 01 through 04 which are now supplied with M22759/11 PTFE Teflon insulated wire regardless of the connector finish.  Previously, these connectors were supplied with M22759/33 ETFE insulated wire when the Nickel finish (type "N") was specified and with the /11 wire otherwise. Application Note #7 is modified to reflect this change.
