How did the French Republic change the nature of modern warfare?

Napoleon developed the use of massed battlefield artillery. Rifled Infantry weapons began to improve, leading to the improved effectiveness of light infantry as opposed to the mass column. As Infantry became more potent Cavalry began to lose its battlefield supremacy. Technological improvements in time make Artillery more deadly and accurate. By the First world War the Tank & Aeroplane appear. The first use of Chemical weapons. WW2 brings Radar & the Jet Engine.The British begin the use of 'Special Forces' in the desert campaign (The LRDG). Japan uses Suicide bombing with the Kamakazi attack. The Germans use the first Ballistic Missile, the V2.Even now warfare is changing in Afghanistan & Iraq, the individual soldier on the ground now has more power than ever before. Satelite technology revolutionises communications.
