Is the Sikorsky helicopter-style naming a trademark violation?

• Someone 3y ago
  Lockheed Martin adds a ® to the name on https://www.lockheedmartin.com/en-us/products/sikorsky-black-hawk-helicopter.html https://www.lockheedmartin.com/en-us/products/sikorsky-black..., so somebody seems to have some claim on that name, so maybe, yes. By the way: it’s not Sikorsky-style, it’s US military style. https://www.defense.gov/News/Inside-DOD/Blog/article/2052989/why-army-helicopters-have-native-american-names/ https://www.defense.gov/News/Inside-DOD/Blog/article/2052989... “The tradition of naming helicopters after Native Americans was once an official regulation. That regulation no longer stands, but the tradition continue.” https://www.lockheedmartin.com/en-us/products.html?domain=&capability=aircraftrotary https://www.lockheedmartin.com/en-us/products.html?domain=&c... also shows Sikorsky doesn’t use this theme for civilian helicopters.
