Alongside the floatplane N3N-3 is this land-based version which was accepted by the USN September 1941, serving at the NAIT instructor school at NAS Corpus Christi, TX and the US Naval Academy at Anapolis, MD from 1947. Struck off as late as 1959, it was sold as N6399T and joined the museum collection in 1978

The National Museum of Naval Aviation has two N3N aircraft on display, with and without floats. This is the one with conventional undercarriage and it became N3NP after its service. This registration was cancelled in 1979 and it is now on display at this magnificent museum.
