When will you guys learn, MILITARY AIRCRAFT DO NOT, REPEAT DO NOT REPEAT, DO NOT CARRY U.S. REGISTRATION NUMBERS starting with letter N, more so in this case that this E3F (F for France, mind you) belongs to the _Armee de láir which translates into FRENCH AIR FORCE. Aircraft N702CB under civilian registry/ownership in the U.S. is an S.2R aerial spraying/firefighting aircraft with a single Wright R-1820 av gas engine of 1450 HP.
In didairbus's defense, I believe that unless you put in a six digit number (such as for US military aircraft serial numbers) the FA system automatically puts an "N" in there for you whether you want it or not. I'm guessing that didairbus knows this isn't a Rockwell S-2R. And 702-CB does appear to be the French Air Force registration number for this aircraft. I think he was trying to get it right. So, I would cut him a little slack, and it is a pretty good shot.
