Swift BAT triggered twice on the supergiant fast X-ray transient IGR J08408-4503 (trigger 361128 at 22:51:46.96 UT and trigger 361129 at 23:09:22.96 UT; a 1056-s separation). Both were image triggers; 320-s and 64-s, respectively. Swift did not perform an autonomous slew to either of these triggers because the current target was of a higher merit value. However, a TOO was executed 6.1 hours later.
