What does your common sense tell you?
There are two answers.
Defense:
They want a large military force to protect their country in case another country want to attack or invade them or to aid another country they need to help defend.
Aggression:
They want a large military force to
invade and take over another country that they don't like and want to kill them or own them or help another country do that.
Currently, North Korea and Russia are in the aggression category.
Not all countries want larger military. They only want adequate military. For example, Israel has no trouble winning wars against larger adversaries with a relatively small military. The USA needs a large military only because the government wants to invade so many other countries.
