Lets add a few British conflicts to the list just to get a slighty wider
perspective on low tech vs high tech,

Malaya -- High tech force wins
Burma -- High tech force wins
Sierra Leone -- High tech force wins

Of course the high tech force (Britain) won in all of these cases by the
high tech in a more precise manner rather than relying on high tech
firepower, and had full political support.

PS: Can Grenada count as a war? I thought in a war both sides had to
shoot.
