Hab CLII is not a bad aircraft, but not as speedy or as well armed as the Bristol. It could put up a good fight but IMHO the Bristol was a better plane.
A side note. All two-seat aircraft flown by a good crew, not getting surpised by fighters, could be very, very, dangerous to fighters. In the board game Dawn Patrol I have played several two-seaters (including the Sopwith 1 1/2) and when they cooperate are very deadly. However two-seaters not flown well can be "easy meat".

A Victoria Cross was awarded to AA Mcleod (I hope I spelled that right) flying a Armstrong FK8, this crew shot down two Fokker DRI's before crashing. Not bad for a bomber.
