once again loaded weight AND NOT EMPTY WEIGHT
AH 64 can carry 16 hellfire missile + 2 Rocket pod+ 1200 round of 30 mm ammo + 2 AAM total +fuel for 2.5 hr total weight around 2500 kg
When they design the Z10 they intentionally specify 6-7 ton loaded weight. That is the design requirement that China ask Kamov to do the preliminary design
AH 64 is 8-9 ton weight helicopter
It is completely different class altogether There is class even in the fighter jet JF 17 is light weight fighter J 10 is medium weight fighter J20 is heavy weight fighter. Are you saying they all belong to the same class?
How about tank China have 3 type medium one type 96, Heavy tank type 99, VT5 light weight tank they are designed that way
You don't just compare the empty weight You have to compare the range, weapon load, speed, effectiveness etc
