Drones, fighter-planes, satelites that can spot you from up and space and give your coordinates to a bomber. Is revolution even possible anymore?

I count on many of those operating the weapons to turn on their superiors rather than fight against their own people. The soldiers will turn to support the working class, since many are soldiers not because they want to be, but because they needed a stable income...
Even if they don't guerrilla insurrections are, and have always been effective means of warfare.

To run all of these things you need vast resources mined and refined by workers. To maintain and replace them you need workers to do that too. While in the short term the military may be of concern to workers, soldiers come primarily from working class families with parents and siblings that are working class. Besides, workers feed and clothe the soldiers as well.

It doesn't matter how good the technology of the 1% is. The 99% will always prevail.

If you are talking a massive popular revolution what would them having a bird's eye view do for them? All it would do is confirm they are screwed, as for giving coordinate to a bomber, that is not a good idea if their coordinates is the storming the capital.

Revolution is the force of the whole working class. Not just a military action.
You can't stop revolution when soldiers refuse to fight for you and workers refuse to manufacture your ammunition and weapons. You can't stop revolution when workers refuse to deliver your fuel or supply you with food.

Seizing the means of production, also means seizing the military factories, which means seizing all their toys...which of course means they can all go fuck themselves :)
