The only Fordson tractors made in the USA were the very early ones ('17-'28). Wartime Fordsons were all made in the UK only. Any American tractors were simply "Ford"; 9N 1939-42, 2N 1942-47, 8N 1948-1953.
9Ns and 2Ns were supplied Lend Lease to the UK for War Service (Airfields as you suggest) but also for Agricultural (Land Army) and Industrial use. UK-made Fordson Standard tractors (Model N) also saw the same use.
