During the Six Day war, both Israel and the Arab forces used American made M60 patton tanks.

I'm sure the UH-1 Huey has seen both sides of a war or two considering it's pervasive usage throughout the world.

Iran and Iraq had a lot of the same hardware in their war simply because they were both buying weapons from China and Russia. The list there would be a bit long. Mikojan/Gurevich and Sukhoi both show up a lot.

I would imagine that the F-4 saw both sides of the Yom Kippur war, but I'm not sure exactly when Egypt got their hands on F-4's of their own.

During the Falkland war, C-130 were used by both sides I think, as well as some support helos.
