Le NAF N3N Canary était un biplan biplace d'entraînement de base construit par Naval Aircraft Factory (NAF) à Philadelphie (Pennsylvanie). Le N3N a été construit sous deux versions principales : une version terrestre et une version hydravion.
L'hydravion utilisait un gros flotteur unique sous le fuselage et de petits flotteurs latéraux sous les ailes inférieures.

La version terrestre utilisait un train d'atterrissage fixe.
L'appareil était propulsé par un moteur radial Wright R-760 Whirlwind développant une puissance de 225 chevaux-vapeur (168 kW).
Beaucoup de ces moteurs ont également été construit sous licence par NAF.

N.A.F. produisit plus de 900 N3N à partir de 1935. Parmi ceux-ci plus de 750 N3N-3 furent produits.
Quatre N3N-3 furent délivrés à l'US Coast Guard en 1941.
Le N3N fut le dernier biplan en service dans les forces armées US, le dernier étant retiré du service de l'US Naval Academy en 1961.

The N3N was a United States two-place primary training biplane aircraft built by the Naval Aircraft Factory (N.A.F.) in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania during the 1930s.
Development and design
Built to replace the Consolidated NY-2 and NY-3, the N3N was successfully tested as both a conventional airplane and a seaplane.

The seaplane used a single float under the fuselage and floats under the outer tips of the lower wing.
The conventional airplane used a fixed landing gear.
The prototype XN3N-1 was powered by a radial Wright designed Wright J-5 engine.

An order for 179 production aircraft was received.
Near the end of the first production run the engine was replaced with the Wright R-760-2 Whirlwind radial.

Operational history
The N.A.F. delivered over 900 N3N aircraft beginning in 1935. Of these were N3N-1s and over 750 were N3N-3s.
Four N3N-3s were delivered to the United States Coast Guard in 1941.
Production ended in January 1942 but the type remained in use through the rest of World War II.
The N3N was the last biplane in US military service - the last (used by the U.S. Naval Academy for aviation familiarization) were retired in 1961.

The N3N was also unique in that it was an aircraft designed and manufactured by an aviation firm wholly owned and operated by the U.S. government (the Navy, in this case) as opposed to private industry.
For this, the Navy bought the rights and the tooling for the Wright R-760 series engine and produced their own engines.
These Navy built engines were installed on Navy built airframes.
