Modern US Navy Warship Colour(s) Question...which gray?

Also, which "red" should I use for the hull colour?  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

I like American Tradition's Red Primer from Lowes hardware store in the large economy-sized rattlecan. 

In hobby enamels, check White Ensign Model's Colourcoat line of paints for a modern USN hull red. 

In acrylics, check the railroad-side of the hobby shop for Polly Scale Mineral Red.  Look too at the ModelMaster Acryl II Marine line of paints for a USN hull red.  The line is OOP, but you can most likely order it direct from Testors.

Thanks for all the tips.  After I posted, I thought to do a "search" on this forum for the "Arleigh Burke" and see what colours pple were using for that ship.  I should have done that search first, but didn't think of it until after I posted.  Thanks for your tips and suggestions.
