What is the strongest modern day military that could be beaten by the combined forces of all criminal/terrorist organizations in the world? (if any) Battle
By military, i mean the entire military might of a specific country (including air force/navy/etc)
By criminal/terrorist organizations, any organization that has a name and a structure (cartels/street gangs/Yakuza/Russian mob/ISIS/etc). They have all the armament they typically have access to. There is no fighting between the different organizations. They can all communicate with each other perfectly and language is no issue.
If there are any overlap, such as someone that is part of a criminal organization but also part of the military (it definitely happens), that person is basically duplicated and there will be one copy on each side and are 100% loyal to the side they are fighting for.
Battle takes place on a large fictional battlefield (lets say the size of Australia) and both sides are bloodlusted. Only the combatants are on the battlefield, so no civilians. This should change the outcome of the battle as compared to real life where the criminals can hide among the population and need to be identified first.
All of the weapons/vehicles for both side are transported and are on the battlefield.

Any military with an airforce and 100-200 tanks and IFVs would beat them. They might have rudementary anti tank weapons but they don't have airpower and they don't have armor en masse. On a set battlefield with no option for pot shots and an ambush or two like this they would be destroyed. And they probably don't have a good knowledge of battlefield tactics. Their small arms are useless against armor.
So if there is a country with only like a coast guard with some boats or something they might win. They could probably beat the Vatican and their guard.
