well,now,think yourself :
Automatic weaponry actually didnt changed wars too much.
Aircrafts brought some change,but also not that much.
Mechanized warfare..It changed tactics,but not war itself.
While nukes..Well,Wars between large countries now are simply impossible.
Who would want a war if you cant win it ? and I bet most commanders instead of accepting defeat,would simply have had blown everything apart.
War between east and west is impossible now.Old style war,to say.
I would say most powerful weaponry is money.Every war is now fought with economics..Sanctions,embargoes,fees, these are new weapons,weapons of XXI century..
