Take a look at history. When technological advanced weapons systems were outnumbered by a substantial margin bu less advanced systems they lost. The Germans outclassed the Soviets in WWII yet the sheer numbers of the Soviets overcame that technological superiority. The same held true on the western front to a degree, especially in the area of tank warfare. In Korea the low tech Chinese smashed the technologically superior allied forces and forced a retreat to the stalemate that exists today. The Zero was the class of the Pacific campaign initially but the US used the strategy of attrition to defeat Japanese aircraft.
The percentages of a costly small technological advanced force being defeated are higher than a large less costly and less advanced force. Its the reverse of force multipliers.
The Soviet tanks like the T-34 and KV-1 far outclassed the German tanks. A SINGLE T-34 halted Army Group Center (over 300,000 men) for over 6 hours. The reasons why the Germans won early was they had a much better command and control system which the Soviets were never able to fully copy. Furthermore, now with technology being so important and so dominant on the battlefield, a low tech force has a very hard time inflicting ANY damage on a superior tech force. It hasn't quite reached the level of magic but it is getting close.
