I suppose you could do this for instance:

#declare P = texture {plain code};
#declare F1 = texture {fleet1 code};
#declare F2 = texture {fleet2 code};

#declare Plain is on;
#declare Fleet1 = on;

in the appropriate parts of the ship(s) you state:

#if  (Plain)
  texture {P}
#else
  #if (Fleet1)
    texture {F1}
  #else
    texture {F2}
  #end
#end

Hope this helps
