Airbus DO have such a system --- Runway Overrun Prevention System (ROPS)
The Runway Overrun Prevention System (ROPS) is made up of two sub-functions: runway overrun warning (ROW) and runway overrun protection (ROP). The ROW function generates alerts which incite the flight crew to perform a Go-Around whereas the ROP function generates alerts which incite the flight crew to apply available deceleration means.
ROPS was certified for:
Airbus A380 in 2009
Airbus A320 Family in 2013
Airbus A350 in 2014
Airbus A330 in 2015
I am not sure if this a 'standard fit' piece of kit,
or an optional extra.
