Possible Search System Improvements for Shorter Inputs?

Is it possible to edit the search function to allow shorter inputs? I find it hard finding mentions of military hardware since the names are too short. For example, the Type in Type 59 is in the names of countless weapons but what sets it apart is the 59. Unfortunately, the search function doesn't accept short inputs like 59 and I'm stuck looking through a big list of largely irrelevant posts just to find messages on the specific weapon system. Any aircraft like J-8 J-36 J-35 just cannot be searched.

My workaround is to use Google search restricted to this site only.
