$MoSi_2$/W composites were fabricated by vacuum hot press at $1600^{circ}C$ under 30MPa for 3 hrs. The effects of the amount of tungsten in the composites was explained in terms of the microstructure and mechanical properties. Although tungsten was mainly substituted to Mo atoms forming a complete solid solution of (Mo.W).Si, (x= 1, 5, y=2, 3). the grain size of composites became smaller with the increase of tungsten added. Vickers hardness was increased with the increase of tungsten content due to the solid-solution hardening. On the other hand, toughness of composites decreased sharply by increasing the amount of tungsten. Optimum tungsten amount was determined to be a 10 vol% of composite. Indentation fracture toughness was calculated to be 4.5MPasqrt{m}$ in this composites, compared with $2.7MPasqrt{m}$ in pure $MoSi_2$.
