With the exception of the new "jets" the very same equipment that was used in WWII was used in Korea.
Some may argue that the M46 Patton tank was new, however that was simply an upgraded WWII M26 Pershing 90mm (medium) gun tank.
Otherwise, same rifles, same helmets, same trucks, same airplanes, same bombers, same warships, same jeeps (1/4 tons), same rations and same tanks. Also, in many cases, the same men (WWII servicemen also fought in Korea). There was only a five year gap between WWII & Korea.
