Thursday night's "CSI: NY" television show will feature an Ogden creation.

A Limited Edition Armormax Hummer H2 that was designed, built and provided by International Armoring Corp., based in Ogden, will be part of the program's season finale.

The company said the vehicle is armored to defend against high-powered rifle fire, attacks from grenades, land mines and improvised explosive devices. Additional features include run-flat tires, an armored fuel tank, a bullet-proof battery and concealed dual ram bumpers. The entire passenger compartment is bulletproof and bombproof, the company said.

The cost of the CSI vehicle with the Limited Edition package is $172,500.

IAC has manufactured more than 5,500 armored vehicles for shipment to more than 50 countries, including vehicles for 36 foreign presidents and heads of state.
