There were many, more than in any war up to this point. The list I shall give is probably not all of them.
The tank was invented by a British officer as a way to get across no-mans land and over trenches. It was impervious to all but artillery so machine-guns and rifles were useless.
Also gas was used on a large scale for the first time. It was placed in shells and fired from artillery into enemy trenches. The most memorable gas used was "mustard" gas.
The bomber plane was also invented during WW1, with the German Gotha bomber being the first plane to realistically be classed as such.
There were also many advances in existing military technologies. It was only in this war that fighter planes became what we would now call fighter planes. Before the war they were used solely for reconnaissance but by the end they had developed into real fighters. Also machine guns became water-cooled meaning they would not overheat and artillery fired further and faster. Also cavalry was finally shown to be an archaic military wing that was no longer relevant to a modern war.
There were several new technologies that increased the lethality of warfare in WW1. The first was the use of the airplane; only a decade after the Wright Brothers first flight, it was used for bombing and reconnaissance. Poison gas was used for the first time; fired in huge artillery barrages, it caused massive casualties and terror amongst those in the trenches. Tanks were used in battle for the first time; they were used to lead the charge and break through the barbed wire and other obstacles that protected those in the trenches. Additionally, artillery and machine guns improved in distance, accuracy, and rate of fire, all of which contributed to the some 10 million combat deaths.
World war 1
The first use of gas in a war was used in world war one.
Over time the world has made many developments, and it seems during war many of them are seen. During World War I the machine gun was developed, along with poison gas, and flash bombing.Ê
There were lots of new technologies used in World War I. Tanks, airplanes, modern machine guns, poison gas, telephones and radios are a few examples.
World War I is significant because it marked the debut of many new types of weapons and was the first huge war to benefit from technological advances in radio, electrical power, and other technologies
New technologies were made. There were new weapons such as Tanks, Cannons, Submarines, Chemical Gas, and Military Airplanes.

well, the microwave was invented, the radio, and new guns
one of the new military weapons was the machine gun
the jeep and the bouncing bomb and radar was developed (your welcome)

Radar, jets, rockets, Atom Bomb, Penicillin
They allowed Germany to take France easily
