Exclamation F15 trouble

Hello,
I searched everywhere for this...but I couldn't get clear answer; because it seems that there is confusion with this problem.

I have "Civilization 3: Complete"
According to description, F15 is suppose to do "stealth attack" which you can pick specific enemy from stacked enemy units.
I'm "not" talking about "precision attack or precision bombing" which attacks city improvements. It seems that some peoples are confused between these and gives wrong advise.

First, the only attack options F15 has are: (auto) bombing, (auto) precision attack, (auto) precision bombing. There is no attack command for "stealth attack"
Obvisouly those precision attacks are for cities only.
Therefore only option I have for attack ground unit is bombing.
When I bomb stacked enemy units, I can not select specific target.

Is this a bug? or am I missing something?
Thanks for helping me

Its a bug, F-15s can't stealth attack like they are supposed to.

Oh well...that's kinda disappointing...I actually thought I was missing something...
One of reason I chose America was because of F15's stealth attack ability.

Does developers aware of this bug?
Because really...the game has been out for awhile...and anyone could find this bug very easily.
The manual and its official Civ website even advertise this stealth attack as new unit ability too...
Again...disappointed

Anyways...thanks for the help by the way

Sadly, there are several other bugs that are more significant that aren't going to be fixed. The barbarian bug, the submarine bug, the army bug, and (the one that I find most annoying, as it is mentioned as a significant feature) the scientific golden age bug (I'm sure there are others, but I didn't have to think much to come up with these).

Anyways, welcome to CFC!

Subs are somtimes the AI acidentaly run them over and start a war for no reason. meaning you cant leave a submarine in the sea without risking war. the golden age is well there is no goldenage. What is the Army bug?

That the AI can't handle Armies.

(Well, it can, if you mod them appropriately, but it can't handle normal armies.)

Hmmm, I've never done this myself yet, but I thought you could upgrade your F-15's with stealth capability in Conquests.
