I think the outcome of the war depends mostly on where the war takes place. If it takes place in Tamriel then at the start we would have a great advantage because of the technology, but later on the scientists of Tamriel would (as datadragon said) reverse engineer our technology and upgrade it with magic, which would mean they would most certainly win. On the othr hand, if the war took place on Earth, we would win big time. Considering that magic(probably) doesn't exist in our universe, the Tamrielan armies would be defenseless. Even if they manage to reverse engineer our technology, their armies would need additional time for training in using guns and explosives. Plus, if magic doesn't exist on Earth then there are no Daedra/Aedra, dragons or Dragonborns to asist tchem in battle. So it all depends on whether the war takes place on Earth or in Tamriel.
