How didn't it? World War II revolutionized warfare in two distinct ways:

1. Tactics. Before World War II, the primary aim of your military was to take as much territory as possible. World War II changed that and the aim became destroying the enemy army, forcing the government to surrender unconditionally. Furthermore, World War II saw the creation of the "blitzkrieg," also known as "lightning war," which saw massed tank formations penetrating single points in lines, spreading panic and quickly disproved the idea of "static defense."

2. Technology - World War II gave us radar, the jet engine, incredible new bombers, and massive new bombs to go with it.

The general question, 'How was World War II different?,' is usually asked in connection with World War I. On that basis, the Second World War differed from the First in several respects. Among other important differences, it was, first, even more widespread and destructive, with far more bitterly opposed enemies involved than the previous world-conflict witnessed. Second, it saw the return of offensive tactics and technology as supreme on the battlefield, with Germany's 'blitzkrieg' and the Japanese 'carrier-based offensive' re-introducing campaigns of movement across the war's theaters of action.

World War 1 changed warfare by stimulating research into better ranged attacking and aerial warfare. This was because of the stalemate caused by trench warfare.
