From my observations as a Singaporean, the War Ensign is used by the Republic of Singapore Navy (RSN) aboard their naval vessels at the main mast.

The blue State Ensign was formerly used by our Navy upon independence and up to 5th May 1967 when our Navy was granted the white War Ensign (ratio 1:2) which doubled up as the land-based Navy Flag (ratio 2:3).
