well World War 1 was really a war that changed the face of warfare...airplanes were used for the first time as a weapon rather than a simple recon technique, horse cavalry was rendered obsolete by machine guns, but i feel the most important weapon to come out of the war was the tank. The British first developed them and the Germans and french were fast to follow suit. here is a link for WWI tanks
