Orbital's naming scheme is all screwy
Minotaur I-V were all icbm-derived rockets.
Taurus I was a Pegasus strapped on top of an ICBM lower stage and was renamed Minotaur C for some reason.
Taurus II was a 2xNK-33 lower stage with a solid upper stage and got renamed Antares. Then after an NK-33 blew up and gave us the most kino explosion in rocket history then they replaced them with an RD-181, which is what we have now.
