Risk Question

I am learning to play Risk and have a simple question. There are three
different army pieces: infantry, cavalry, and artillery. Why would you
trade infantry for the other pieces what benefit is there? Why would you
not just have lots of infantry? Is there a reason or is just so they fit
on the board? If you lose one army wouldn't you have to replace an
artillery with its value in infantry less one?
