P-51 Mustang with rare cammo

The link below brings some photos of a P-51 Mustang applied with an experimental paint scheme. Does anyone know the name or if this cammo was used operationally?

“In 1942, USAAF Captain Paul Hexter designed a black and white dazzle camouflage paint scheme reminiscent of a WWI warship. While it was moderately successful, the application and maintenance of the scheme was labor intensive and ultimately not adopted.” http://live.warthunder.com/post/6629/
