How does salvaging in modern wars work? You're already killing each other so stealing and using your enemies' equipment shouldn't be surprising but how about when the war's over? Do you get to keep the spoils? It might not matter for smaller things such as guns and ammo but how large can it get before the other side tries to negotiate to get it back?

AFAIK Israel has converted a whole bunch of captured vehicles and re-purposed them for their own use. A genius move if you ask me, your basically getting some of the cost of the war back. This is one of them:

They also converted a lot of T-55 and T-62s to use the 105mm L7 gun, which they then used in reserve/second line units and exported after taking them out of service.

Meet Alfred Becker. He combed the beaches of France and built enough German conversions to field two full divisions.
