Yes standard Baltic (actually Russian) birch is not even slightly water
resistant.


Sure is nice for making scale models though

The problem with the local 3mm baltic birch that I have been able to
find is that it only has interior grade glue.... which I don't think

Are you sure you can't get 3mm baltic birch ply locally?
It seems to be very popular for making drawer bottoms. Cheap and strong too.
I think 3mm should be flexible enough to cold mould the way you want.
