Since the E2C is operating out of Tengah, it is unlikely that the new AWACs will operate from another airbase.
If you spot a similar Gulfstream taking off from another airbase, most likely it could be an executive jet flying in some US military brass or senior government staff on a short visit to Singapore.
Reading some of the specs on the IAF Gulfstream fitted with their Phalcon AEW, if similar or enhanced version is fitted into the RSAF Gulfstream platforms - it will surely boost the operating effectiveness of the RSAF.

I believed the plane was flying out from SWAB as I was on the SLE travelling towards Ang Mo Kio. The plane was sporting external conformal parts. If it was ferrying VIPs, then they must have been fried by the extensive mircowave bands. "Airflown US fried chicken".
