Are there any mods for Factorio that allow creating formations of units?
Are there any mods for Factorio that allow organizing units into formations? I'm looking for something that lets me control groups of units in a structured way, such as setting specific shapes, movement patterns, or automated deployment. Ideally, the mod would support things like squad-based control, custom formations, or even AI behavior for coordinated attacks. Are there any mods that offer such features?

Several!
The base game's Spidertron remote allows you to select + move a group of Spidertron (or modded copies), with a movement queue. Spidertron Automation allows you to do exactly what it says - I like it.
Enemy Race Manager is mostly focussed on "The Enemy forces", but it does seem to give a lot more depth than the base game's spawner systems. I have not used it much - does not fit my personal flavor.
AAI Programmable Vehicles is probably the closest to what you are asking for. It allows you to use circuits to move Vehicles (mostly Cars/Tank upgrades) around. Again, not something I have used much but it looks very powerful - I just don't need that sort of thing.
Good luck!
