Bur the post by DI said TATA never used any foriegn collaboration or technical assistance or drawings, as far as I understood.
I bet the drawings of the cummins 6 BT is also made by ERC.
Btw the tie up with Hino-AL was from 1970's

Cummins B 5.9 is rated at 2500 RPM. |
Baseless.... in the AL website most of the engines are rated at 2400 rpm.
Please do not post wrong facts.

Were you in ERC?? I request you to justify the statement. THe cummins 6BT drawings were copied or borrowed from Cummins?? What happened to the indigenious R & D??
Well well..Well....
ONe last remark on the subject.
So who has the better cabs now?? New gen AL or TATA??
For the uninformed I'll post apic of New gen cab here..
