Save yourself a lot of typing or do a bit of investigation before making change suggestions like this. There are limits on unit names so NONE of this is really usable

The one above becomes

S-70A-9 Black H

In game reality what was there is more generally useable to a non-detail fetish player which is why "S-70 Blackhawk" was used.... it tells a player what it is and most importantly..... IT FITS the game name restrictions

VERY few players care that it is an A-9. It's fiddly rivet counting. S-70 Black Hawk with the name split into two words fits though but "UH-60M Black Hawk" does NOT fit the game format either and becomes UH-60M Black Ha when entered and dropping the M does not help

What was there was there because it worked when Black Hawk is Blackhawk and why the Black Hawks in the US OOB are Blackhawk
