How doest it compare to CZJ 60/4 and other UV lenses for image quality?

unknown it is. There is only some internal paper (I have a copy) showing that it was made.

Very well, certainly above the CZJ 60/4 as it shows no focus difference!! Meaning,
it is an APO lens reaching into UV (I saw no focus difference UV-VIS-IR)

Impressive.

I wonder how it renders out of focus areas with these aperture blades (guess not the priority for the designers).

Shape of the diaph looks like Helios-40 or Jupiter-6
