2 The M1 carbine (formally the United States Carbine, Caliber.30, M1) is a lightweight, easy to use semi- automatic carbine that became a standard firearm for the U.S. military during World War II, the Korean War and the Vietnam War, and was produced in several variants. In selective fire versions capable of fully automatic fire, the carbine is designated the M2 carbine. The M3 carbine was an M2 with an active infrared scope system.

3  The Japanese Type 38 cavalry rifle was a short barreled version of the bolt-action Type 38 rifle, it was used by the Japanese cavalry, engineers and artillery troops during World War II. It entered service in 1905. It was very accurate, and the rifle barrel was 310 mm shorter than the standard rifle. It was also used by rear echelon troops.

4 The PM M1910 was a heavy machine gun used by the Imperial Russian Army during World War I and the Red Army during World War II. It was adopted in 1910 and was derived from Hiram Maxim's Maxim gun, chambered for the standard Russian 7.62x54mmR rifle cartridge. The M1910 was mounted on a wheeled mount with a gun shield and was replaced in Soviet service by the SG- 43 Goryunov which retained the wheeled and shielded carriage, starting in 1943. In addition to the main infantry version, there were aircraft mounted (PV-1) and naval variants.

5  Jet planes were introduced to the field of air combat in late WWII when the Germans created the ME262a and b versions. This technology was adopted by American and Soviet scientists and incorporated in Korean war jets. Helicopters were also a new addition to the modern battlefield. The technology had been developed in WWII, but never used in a combat situation. Another aspect was the use of precision guided weapons, specifically the RAZON glide bomb. Developed during WWII, it never got out of the test phase but was operationally tested in Korea. Was not too successful due to reliability issues
