All aircraft are fitted with brakes (much like a car) -however - with large aircraft, the pilot can set the engines to 'reverse thrust' which brings the plane to a stop quickly.

Can you raise and increase the landing ground margin of Boeing 747 landing gear?

If you grossly overcharged the struts of the landing gear you could increase the ride height of the aircraft, but it could lead to damage to the aircraft due to the lack of 'give' when landing and it would be very uncomfortable for those on board. It would not therefore be sensible.

What is the landing speed of fighter jet on an aircraft carrier?

"The landing system on an aircraft carrier can stop a 54,000 pound airplane traveling at 150 mph in two seconds." Also, the aircraft carrier is often moving away from the landing aircraft (allowing a greater true air speed for the landing airplane.) Suppose the aircraft carrier is going 15 mph, then the 54,000 pound aircraft can land at a true airspeed of 165 mph.
