We have observed the supernova remnant 3C400.2 with the VLA at 327.5 a
nd 1465 MHz. The images, obtained with an angular resolution better th
an 1' and a sensitivity of 1 mJy/beam, show significant new features t
hat suggest that the radio remnant may be formed by two highly symmetr
ical circular shells that overlap in the northwest. The x-ray emitting
region fills the interior of the radio shells, peaking in the region
where the radio continuum synchrotron rings overlap. A detailed spatia
l correlation of optical filaments with the newly discovered radio fea
tures is found. Two different scenarios consistent with the observed m
orphologies are proposed: (a) 3C400.2 is the result of an explosion oc
curring inside the wind-driven bubble excavated by a massive progenito
r star, or (b) the distribution of the emission observed in the differ
ent spectral ranges is the signature of two different SN explosions.
