What if the military was bribed by a foreign nation or drug cartel to all defect at the same time with all vehicles and weapons they could carry?

Mexico doesn’t have the Pesos!
If you can buy off the entire military just invade them
I don’t think anybody has enough money. Googling I did told me that Norway’s sovereign well fund is the largest at something like 1.7 trillion dollars. Divided by the 2.86 million members of the US military is a little less than $600,000 per person.
That’s the wealthiest country. And that’s kind of their entire endowment.
I’m sure there are people who would defect for $600,000. But that’s really not that much money to give up everything you’ve ever known. So I don’t think you get very many.
You all are forgetting that many soldiers aren’t in for the great pay and excellent health insurance they receive for their service /s. You’re asking them to betray their principles. Good luck.
Look at the Iran contra affair, cash for drugs and guns with multiple countries involved….. Yea
Most people who join the military aren’t opportunistic traitors.
Take a look at Mexico to see what happens…
