Why does the Zhi-9 carry fewer missiles than the American Apache? What is the principle? The more specific the better. I'm blind. Please don't laugh.

First of all, the Z-9 and the Apache are not of the same grade. The Z-9 is a light helicopter, while the Apache is a heavy-duty helicopter.

Secondly, the Z-9 is modified from a transport helicopter. , and the Apache is a specially developed combat helicopter

Finally, light helicopters really cannot compare with heavy helicopters in terms of bomb load.
