The "N" Signifies a set that originated with the Navy,
namely the ATA/ARA. The sets are nearly identical in design
and the Army Air Corps was ordered to copy the set and
add the "N." I think Hap Arnold did it to punish the
Air Corps procurement boys for being pig-headed about
accepting the set, wasting months on a Bendix klung.
