Could it be possible, that my android build tools are too new?
I had similar issues with the latest version of JDK.

What version of cordova-android are you using?

(You should look on Github if there is an issue for ionic-cli already about the missing platforms or create one if not)

Where can I see the version?

Update: The function that returned the buildToolsDir in cordova.grade on 43 looked into the wrong directory.
I hardcoded it for now:

 def buildToolsDir = new File( "C:/Users/LS/AppData/Local/Android/Sdk/", "build-tools")
    //  throw new RuntimeException(
    //       "----------->" + buildToolsDir
    //  )
