It was on the Jupiter-12 and din't find any information about it.
It looks very darker than any other blue filter I've ever seen and I'm wondering what is the purpose of such a filter

CC would imply it is a colour correction filter, perhaps 1 is the lightest. Maybe to use daylight film under 2800k or lower tungsten light. An educated guess.

I don't know about SS but is still seems like a colour correction filter. look at this cokin page. http://www.cokin.co.uk/pages/colour2.htm
The 80A filter is to correct 3200k photofloods to balance with daylight film. Kodak did make one which balanced 2800k - the redder domestic light bulbs, the filter would would be a deeper blue than the 80A. The Russians are unlikely to have gone with the Kodak naming conventions. So what I said before, I still believe could be the right answer.
To test it, set your camera color balance to 'daylight' then take a shot inside under tungsten light with the filter. If the colours appear natural - then that's what it is.

Of course this filter can be used to enhance freckles and dark skin - if the model would be happy with that.
Black & white film only of course. It seems that filters have little effect on digital cameras working in mono.

I think CC stands for "синий синий", which translates as double deep blue, equivalent to 80B (2 80As). And number four stand for filter factor. I might be wrong though |

This is what I thought, but didnt know it was 80B, just deeper than 80A.
Have you tried as I suggested? Set camera to daylight, then use it indoors under normal incandescent bulb lighting.

My understanding of things were: two 80As stacked together would give the same result as a single 80B.  No?? |

Possibly, it will have more blue to compensate for the redder light of a domestic house bulb.
Rick1779, have you tried it as a colour conversion filter as per my suggestion?

I conclude that it is a mysterious blue filter. Possibly designed for specialist industrial use.
