For naval combat in a sci-fi environment we do not have too many miniatures. Companies like Brigade Models, Ground Zero Games and more recently, Strato Minis Studio, produce this kind of miniatures. In the following link I have gathered all these miniatures:

Are there any other companies that produce this kind of miniatures?

If you're after Landing craft GHQ and Heroics & Ros have ranges from WW2, Modern and Vietnam.

Scotia Grendel also do their Ship to Shore range in 6mm.

Thank you, BattlerBritain! Good examples, indeed, and I think they can be easily converted. Hope there are other miniatures created especially for science fiction batttlefields.

I remember Old Crow used to have some Sci-fi naval stuff. They are still in the Manufacturers Directory oldcrowmodels.co.uk but I don't know if they are still active.

Thank you, McKinstry! I searched their website but I cannot find any miniatures there. I think it is inactive for quite some time.

Old Crow I think have become boutique; You can email Jez directly and if he's not busy he can cast something up for you. Not sure if he's done anything new for years.

It is a play on a name – WWII Pacific, the Battle of "Okinawa" … One of the biggest bloody island invasions in the PTO …
