John,
The F-2 was built on the same frame as tthe F-3.
If memory serves me correctly EMC was anxious to get the F-3 out into the 
marketplace but at that time only had the basic components ready (frame etc.) 
so they produced the F-2 in the interem until the F-3 was fully ready to be 
manufactured.
