Do you know where in Carieer mode I can encounter for example Soviet, Japanese or Romanian ships? While I'm on map screen in Carieer mode I can see that ports of Constanza or Murmansk are displayed but I was never given an option to patrol in their vicinity (because grids are not displayed there I suppose).
So do you know where I can encounter those "rare" ships from this countries? (I mean not only Soviet Japanese or Romanian ones but also Indian or New Zealand's)

and another one:

Anyway if someone knows where I can find ships from countries I wrote in first post please let me know

You may invest a Minute to find the interested regions by using "mySH3-TooL" and the "Sh3MissionEditor" (ME). Use the correct Country-names found in "SH3:\data\Roster\DefSide.cfg". For example in vanilla SH3 they are called India, NewZealand (NoSpace!), Romania, Russia and Japan.
Use Button [mis2csv] on Campaign_RND.mis and *SCR.mis. Then put in the Text-Field one Country-Name for example "Origin=India" and push [ExtrctUnt]. Next [Campaigne Renum] on the result. Next [csv2mis]. Then use ME to open this Result. Now you can see the Units where the Country can be found. It isnt that hard.

As you have seen in Museum the Ships look almost the same for different countries. Only the Flag is another one. What is your benefit to see an Indian-Ship? I would not go the loooong way to the left-coast of india only to see Indian-Ships.
