There is a website called Navypedia. It has a subsection called Fighting Ships of the World. You can use it to find what ships each country had in service 60/70s. Once you have 1 or 2 examples in mind, seek out images for those ships. Wikipedia actually isn't a bad option. Example: It looks like Norway preferred a color I know as Light Gull Gray. Watch out on Russian deck colors. They went thru a lot of changes, most pretty weird.
