does anyone know what type of gun was on the ship that Paul and the Fremen girl shoot down with a missile launcher?

I’m about to finish the book Paul of Dune. It was after a comment from @Joanna Nanette (in some previous post) that i decided to go for this book after completing the Legends of dune and Prelude to dune trilogies.
Sofar, i find it a good book which contains several time periods in the life of Paul. The assassin wars in the young years of Paul were intriguing and fun to read.
I also found the period that covers the time between the dune and messiah books an addition to the whole story, as it shows a bit more about Paul’s struggle in becoming a tyrant. It also contains a massive assassin attempt which could certainly be added in the next movie.
I'll be ranking the planets of Dune: Part 1 (Arrakis, Caladan, and Giedi Prime) in terms of gravity, from weakest to strongest.
3. Arrakis
The sandworms are evidence that gravity on Arrakis is weaker than gravity on Earth. Something as large as a sandworm could never survive on a planet with gravity as high as Earth's.

2. Caladan
Apparently, this is the standard on Caladan for not putting on muscle. Living on a planet with gravity slightly higher than Earth's would likely produce slightly more muscular humans, although the average build would be closer to Timothee than Jason Momoa.
1. Giedi Prime
Giedi Prime has the strongest gravity out of all the planets shown in Villaneuve's Dune films. This is made clear by the Baron's need for suspenders in order to move around. Here on Earth, I've seen guys bigger than him walking around just fine.
Okay so I'm so curious on how people think Denis Villeneuve is going to get Chani back to Paul after he chose Irulan. Like she decided to go back to the desert in the end scene (super powerful btw and I almost died). So what possible turn of events will gain her respect again? Or is it just using her love?

Combining an epic story with one of my other great hobbies
I could watch the movie in IMAX early show for fans… It’s incredible. I really loved it. I can easily watch it more times. The cast, plots, scenes, soundtracks, storyline, everything is remarkable high quality.
This movie is kind of like Dune, but on Earth and based on real events.
Disclaimer, I have never read the books. Dune 2021 introduced me to this franchise. I just had an idea for a prequel that takes place many years before the birth of Paul Atreidies. I watched a show called House of The Dragon, which takes place thousands of years before Game of Thrones. I just had a thought that Dune would be perfect for that kind of spinoff about the early stages of house Atreides and other houses in the galaxy. I did some research and I would like a show on how the desert war started, what started the fuel between the Atreidies and the Harkonnens. It probably won't take place thousands of years before the events of Dune but I would love to see a House of The Dragon style show for Dune. Just an interesting thought of mine I hope you guys are more of Dune fans then me, I still have a lot to learn about Dune
After I finally finished reading the Dune Saga and the 2 books written by the Sun to wrap up the series, I had a thought about the Reawakening of Ghoulas. And a lot of ways The Reawakening process shares a lot of similarities tothe Bene transformation to become a reverend mother.
Both Reawakening a Ghoula & becoming a Reverend Mother are described as being painful & difficult to succeed.
The end result is similar too, in the sense that the Ghoula regains their past.
Kinda like when the Baron manifested in Other Memory to possess Alia.
IF Reawakening a Ghoula is similar to accessing Other Memory, then all reawakened Ghoulas are technically possessed by the manifestation of their 1 ancestor, themselves
Haha jason momoa go brrrrrr!
