Country allocation
The ICAO 24-bit address ABAF21 falls within the block assigned to United States (US) by ICAO Annex 10, Volume III. Every aircraft registered in United States receives a permanent address from this block at the time of registration; the address stays with the airframe even if the aircraft is re-registered to a different operator within the country.

About Mode-S
A Mode-S transponder code (also called an "ICAO 24-bit address" or "hex code") is a 6-character hexadecimal identifier permanently assigned to an aircraft when it's first registered. Unlike callsigns (which change with each flight) or registrations (which can change if an aircraft is sold internationally), the Mode-S address stays with the airframe for the life of the aircraft in that country.
Every ADS-B transmission from an aircraft includes its Mode-S address, making it the most reliable way to identify a specific airframe. Flight-tracking services like Apparatus use the Mode-S address as the primary key for tying position broadcasts, callsigns, and ownership records together.
