are there any other ways you can slow down faster after landing

well, make sure you have the autobrakes set, (2 for decent runways - 3 for hazardous conditions) and check that the spoilers are armed. You can also manually brake, however, in most meadium sized jets, its uneccessary above 60 kts.

Use the Autobrake. I'm not sure if there's one in the F-16, because I don't fly military jets.

The F-16 does not have a thrust-reverser. That is why it doesn't work. That would be like trying to engage the afterburner on a Cessna 172. It wont work cause there isn’t one.

For aircraft so equipped:

    Press F1 to drop to idle
    Tap F2 or hold it briefly for reverse thrusters (RT)
    Press F1 to clear RT
    In normal flight you'd never activate RT before the main gear is on the runway (no worries, FS9 doesn't allow you to active RT in the air now that I think about it)

Keep in mind that RT are not used on every landing.

HTH,
