The Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered on a new outburst from the Supergiant Fast X-ray Transient (SFXT) IGR J08408-4503 on 2011 August 25 at 00:53:04 UT (image trigger=501368). Swift executed an immediate slew. We performed the analysis of the BAT observation using the data set from T-239 to T+2700 s from recent telemetry downlinks. The mask-weighted light curve shows emission from this source when the position came in to the BAT FoV during a planned slew at T-120 s.
