Entemedor (SS-340) colors?

[Astronotusoc]

Hello! I'm kinda new to building historical models my main previous focus was science fiction models like halo and gundam. I decided to try and paint a baleo class submarine for my grandfather who served on the baleo class Entemedor. Unfortunately I have the model primed for painting, but I can't find a the colors I need for it. I don't run into this problem often when I paint my other models so I figured I would go here where others might have the same experience. I was wondering if any one has painted anything from this class and knew the colors used. If it helps I normally use enamels like tamiya and a air brush, but if you have a different method any help will be grateful!

Do a search in both the kit and scratch areas for "submarine" as the key word in the title.  There's a few builders heavy into subs that might be able to help.

Here is a website about camo schemes on these subs in US service. https://shipcamouflage.com/submarines.htm

 

Subs were painted in Measure 9, a black over upper surfaces and Measure 10, which were  gray uppers.

You would also have to take into consideration the time period you wish to build her. Late WWII at commissioning, in pacific theater, post war, post FRAM etc.

That camo website only helps for WW II. Post war will need good photos for anything else.
