It depends on the warfare area - for Naval Aviation, it's a Flight (same as the AF). For the SEAL's, SeaBee's, and many shore commands, it's still a Platoon.

The term doesn't apply for Navy ships though, as a Platoon is based on the number of personnel in the group. If you were to base it on ship personnel, the likeliest equivalents would be a Task Element (single ship), Task Unit (2 ships) or a Squadron.
