Maybe, but remember in 1947 there were not that many heilcopters around and the Army stated Aircraft (including both fixed and rotory wing). The name on the OH-23 is Raven, (Indian tribe or Name or after the bird.) Also there was the U-25 Army Mule, and many fixed wing aircraft have Indian name's such as Ute, Huron, Seminole, etc, nothing, I quess is set in stone.

Helicopters don't fly, the beat the air into submission
P.S. Historical note on the aircraft acquired as chase plane's for the Cheyenne Project were North American/Cavalier P-51(F-51) Mustangs, the last American military use of these aircraft
