It's quite big actually. I think that imprinting says "U4P 55K". Maybe it's a russian lock? Any further info?

It sure does look very Russian...

Other than telling you the brand name etc.. we cannot tell you anymore since this is a Disk Lock "High Security lock". Yes it is very big and i will have a search for you on that lock and see what i can get mate. :)

I'm going to go for East German military (ex-Soviet Block) due to location and colour and lack of name.

It's clearly a few years old, too.

Yes, Atrix is correct. The company ( or at least the supplier ) is called Chaz, they have an outlet in St. Petersburg. They are an Abloy copy. There are also rim lock cylinders like this and other assorted items. Same number of cuts as abloy ( if I remember correctly ) and they have a preference for steel keyblanks.
