Unless you arrange for a tour guide to take you to both places, I am not aware of such a tour being offered. The Ayalon Institute (bullet factory) tours are given by the people who work there and the Armor Memorial tours are given by Armor Corps soldiers (unless you go with a private guide). There is no connection between the two except that they are official museums. You probably could hire a car and driver to take you to both in the same day, or have a private tour guide do it, but you could save money by driving yourself. In any case the Ayalon Institute tour has to be reserved in advance with the Institute rep (there's a very good reply by one of the reps on Trip Advisor about how to do that - Google "Ayalon Intitute Tours").
