You see video of rockets with munitions in them like surface -to-air and plane mounted rockets and they seem to move so quick. Why do these massive rockets seem to move slow? Is it payload? Do they speed up as they reach the stratosphere?

Most of the speed issue is related to the scale of the object. A car travelling at 200 MPH is travelling at around 15 car lengths per second. A rocket travelling 200 miles per hour right after lift off is travelling less than one “rocket length” per second. Both are travelling the same speed, but the scale of them make their speed look very different.
