I have had that happen with ship, aircraft and LCU icons. The problem is that something has messed up the graphics loading for the combat phases so you just need to save, exit and restart the game to get it all back. An example of the type of thing that screws up the graphics: I wanted too move an LCU that I had selected into an adjacent hex. A combat had taken place in that adjacent hex last turn so it had the crossed swords symbol. I set the LCU to "Move" and then put the mouse on the adjacent hex to give it the target for movement. However when I clicked the mouse button with the cursor on the crossed swords, it switched my LCU from the one I selected to the first one in the stack in the adjacent hex! - and gave me the message "no destination set". When I noticed the LCU switch, I went back to the original LCU and selected it again, and this time when I selected the movement target hex I avoided clicking on the crossed swords icon and the target was set normally. After this little episode, I found all the LCU icons on all my bases had disappeared. If I wanted to get them back I had to click on the base, click on the LCU Flag button to get the list of LCUs and then select one of the LCUs. So it appears the previous interface hiccup caused a problem with retrieval of the icons. Similar events with animations in naval battles, although I have not yet noticed what triggered the blankouts. If restarting the game does not work then you do have a problem.
