I saw in the developer's notes that this ability is apparently in the game. Players have the ability to select a fleet priortise target prior to battle.

Can someone explain how to specifically select the fleet you are going to attack?

Unless i missed something since the last patch I have only had an option when I had 2 other empires' fleets in the same system. It still attacked the weakest fleet first.

I don' like this - usually i have 2+ fleets on the frontline with reinforcements coming. Enemy player wishes to attack and destroys my new 1-3 ships with no losses. This seems illogical. My main fleet can't defend the weak new ones? Why?

I think that attacker must choose stronger prior to weaker.

I think you are referring to the thread which is "suggestions the dev team is tracking". These are features the dev team plans to add in the future. AFAIK there is no way to select defending fleets. The game (not the AI or other human players) selects which fleet to defend, which is always the weakest fleet.
