They weren't a recent invention. They were probably invented long before
the Minbari ever moved into space :-/

The EFSB space combat system doesn't cover any of the old races, so it
isn't surprising that those missiles aren't included in it :-) When the
appropriate RPG module is published it'll probably include space combat
rules for the old ones too.

According to EFSB, the Lexington was a Nova-class rather than a
Hyperion.
The warheads used are only referred to as "mines" in the show - it never
mentions any missiles being stripped down IIRC - but what else would
they
bring nukes for?
