First, the 26th Indian Division, now the 223 RAF Base Force. As it was unloading at Andaman Island - it just unloaded into the void.....

I was a month into the campaign as the Allies and my CV escorts vanished into the ether. 2 CA's, a CL and several destroyers. They were one turn out of Brisbane and poof!, gone. Time to reload the save game.

Hmm I lost a dutch regiment on the completion of an air transport and now I just lost an entire Indian
brigade when it completed an air transport into Mandalay.
The 1st vanishing act I noticed straight away and reloaded a previous save. Stopped the last couple of
support points being air transported and saved the unit.
But the Indian brigade I didn't notice for a while and can't resurrect....
Hope this one is near the top of the list.

Both the air transport and the naval transport when merged problems are known about.
The Air transport vanishing unit issue is completely fixed in the first patch.
The Naval transport is partially fixed in the first patch. It still needs some more work, but as long as you do not merge tf's loading troops together it does not happen *or* as long as you load a unit on 2+ ships it does not happen.
Both of these can be worked around right now with what you have:
a) Load your troops *then* merge ships together into bigger TF's.
b) When air transporting a unit, leave a little bit of the unit behind and it will not vanish. (ie: stop 1 turn before completing the transfer)

There is a know bug in air transport. I. too, have lost units to it. I just stopped using it as a means to avoid unit loss.

I take it you mean the upcoming First Patch? [:)]
Cause I still have the problem with the interims in place.
Can't wait to fix it. Had a heck of a time when I transported an RAAF support group to PM and it vanished. It still showed me as having enough Av Sup, but the unit was gone. Kept wondering why my airgroups kept dwindling away [X(]
