I don't understand why they didn't arm this chopper with gun? it's a need!.

Unlike Z-10 which is a heavy attack helo, Z-19 is a light scout/observation helo and if gun is needed, a pod will suffice.

Because of a big nose radar but guns can be mounted on sides.

Yup
 
how much its advanced when you compare to z10??

Z-19 is supposed to be a armed scout helicopter, to supplement the Z-10 and direct artillery. Its in the same category as US Kiowa Warrior.

Yes that's the positioning of Z-19, hence instead of firepower, priorities are given to sensors and comms, in order to support Z-10 heavy attack helo or ground artillery. Though there is export potential for armies that need light attack/scout helo, so here it goes Z-19E.
